Training the Mind: Continuity and Change in the Rhetoric of School Science.
Millar, Robin
Journal of Curriculum Studies, v17 n4 p369-82 Oct-Dec 1985
The evolution of argument that the study of science develops skills, attitudes of mind, or ways of thinking and behaving that are transferable to other areas of experience is discussed by looking at ways in which it has been deployed by people who sought to expand or alter the role of science in the school curriculum in Great Britain.
