Peer reviewedTrebilco, G. R.; Mackay, L. D. – Physics Education, 1971
Presented is an alternative approach to teaching the Physical Science Study Committee (PSSC) wave model of light, using microwaves. Effectiveness of the alternate approach was determined by student achievement of six objectives. Both experimental and conventional PSSC methods were satisfactory for reaching the objectives. (DS)

Peer reviewedStrong, Laurence E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1971
Argues that chemistry has major implications for our understanding of the nature of things including ourselves. Illustrations have been drawn from the chemical elements, chemical equilibria, and chemical entropy. Chemistry should not be presented as something justified only by its practical results while the other sciences raise the ultimate…

Peer reviewedCherif, Abour; Adams, Gerald; Loehr, John – American Biology Teacher, 2001
Demonstrates the use of geological concepts and principles as an effective approach to teaching evolution and in turn the nature of science and the scientific method in the classroom. This approach to teaching makes it easier for students to understand the basic concepts of evolution which is really important in order to understand nature as it…
