Can Research Provide a Rationale for the Study of Science?

Broudy, H. S.

Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 10, 3, 227-233, 73

Discusses reasons for failure of traditional science programs in contrast with current improvements in science teaching. Indicates that the difficulty of justifying science study will be removed if the use of science by nonspecialists can be proved interpretive rather than replicative or applicative through research studies.
