Perceptions of Coordinators of College Freshman Chemistry Regarding Selected Goals and Outcomes of High School Chemistry.
Shumba, Overson; Glass, Lynn W.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v31 n4 p381-92 Apr 1994
A national survey of 123 heads/coordinators of first-year chemistry in state colleges and universities reveals that what high school chemistry teachers think the college professor looks for in a first-year chemistry student may be inconsistent with professor's true expectations. The results are used to suggest that chemistry teachers and college professors work together to reach common goals. (ZWH)
