Scientific Culture, Multiculturalism and the Science Classroom.
Krugly-Smolska, Eva
Science and Education, v5 n1 p21-29 Jan 1996
Outlines the distinction between science (as knowledge) and scientific culture and provides a description of how one obtains membership in that culture. Concludes that including the contributions of many different groups to scientific culture when teaching the history, philosophy, and sociology of science, is a good way to emphasize that everyone can do science. Contains 27 references. (Author/JRH)
