Can Education Become a Science?
Hansgen, Richard D.
Phi Delta Kappan, v72 n9 p689-94 May 1991
The study of education does not lend itself well to an experimental approach. Educators cannot even agree on a fixed body of common knowledge constituting a discipline of education. Education is subjective, lacking governing equations, unifying principles, and invariant experiments. Education must be dealt with in words, with feelings, and from a human perspective. (MLH)
