Utah Elementary Science Improvement Project. Final Report Part 3: Practice Profile.
Daugs, Donald R.
To summarize the implemented program, this report makes use of the practice profile. Inputs, processes, and outputs statements are the ideals for the practice profile and are adapted from the outputs stated in the Discrepancy Evaluation Model. The major project components are: (1) "Critical Mass" (which is what is needed before the systems will operate); (2) "A Firm Foundation" (in which emphasis is on non-human factors that influence the project); (3) "Application to Teaching Science"; and (4) "Product." Each of the above components are presented in expanded practice profile format. Project innovations are highlighted in a meaningful context and dissemination concerns are stated and discussed. Innovations include early (first year) and in-depth classroom exposure. Collaboration among science departments, the college of education, a laboratory school, and public schools resulted in a variety of resources. (RT)
