Recent Developments in College Science Programs and Courses. ERIC/SMEAC Science Education Digest No. 4.
Howe, Robert W.; Warren, Charles R.
Due to data released in several reports in recent years, concern has been growing regarding the status of undergraduate science in two-year colleges, four-year colleges, and universities. Recommendations of reports on this topic are summarized. Types of programs and activities that have been developed with precollege schools and students; current developments in college science programs, courses, and materials for science and engineering majors; and current developments in college science programs, courses, and materials for non-science majors are discussed. Listed are the addresses of seven sources of information on developments in science and engineering at the postsecondary level. Twelve selected references are presented. (CW)
