Rubba, Peter A.; Rye, James A.
Journal of Elementary Science Education, v9 n2 p82-98 1997
Four upper elementary teachers involved in Science, Technology and Society (STS) instruction through participation in a Leadership Institute in STS Education were examined for their views on teachers serving as models of responsible citizenship action. The teachers appeared to operate under the belief that teachers must practice what they preach in order to inspire students to responsible citizenship action. Contains 27 references. (Author/PVD)
