The Reemergence of the National Science Foundation in American Education: Perspectives and Problems.
Hlebowitsh, Peter S.; Wraga, William G.
Science Education, v73 n4 p405-18 Jul 1989
Criticized are the National Science Foundation (NSF) funded curriculum reforms during the post-Sputnik epoch. The parallels and contrasts between the proposals of today's NSF and those supported during the late 1950s and early 1960s are outlined. The proper role of a policymaking body in American education is recommended. (YP)
