Systems Engineering, Humanism, and the Teaching of Science
Agne, Russell M.; Nash, Robert J.
Science Education, 57, 2, 227-239, Apr/Jun 73

Such models depreciate any learner-teacher-materials-interaction which cannot be assumed to proceed in a pre-determined manner. Efficiency measurement based on maximizing outputs and minimizing inputs produce a kind of prosaic mentality and obtuseness. (Author/PS)
