The Sharing of Personal Science and the Narrative Element in Science Education.
Martin, Brian E.; Brouwer, Wytze
Science Education, v75 n6 p707-22 Nov 1991
Explores the use of narrative as a vehicle for sharing, communicating, and understanding personal experience. Argues that the narrative is a useful form of expression that is too often neglected in science education. Through stories students may begin to more successfully see the subtle dimensions of science and understand the ways in which science, culture, and worldview interact. (PR)
