Area of Science:

  • Education Reform
  • Science, Mathematics, and Technology (SMT) Education

Background:

  • National goals for U.S. student achievement in science and mathematics by the year 2000 are unlikely to be met.
  • Current educational practices require a significant transformation rather than incremental expansion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline essential components for a fundamental shift in K-16 science, mathematics, and technology education.
  • To propose strategies for improving student achievement in SMT fields.

Main Methods:

  • Recommending an increase in SMT curriculum to 20%-25%.
  • Advocating for hands-on experiences emphasizing conceptual understanding over memorization.
  • Integrating the nature of scientific inquiry and its distinction from other ways of knowing.
  • Incorporating the study of human problems and environmental sustainability into SMT education.

Main Results:

  • A proposed educational reform focusing on a paradigm shift in SMT teaching.
  • Emphasis on understanding 'how science knows' and its societal relevance.
  • Integration of environmental carrying capacity as a core SMT problem.

Conclusions:

  • Educational reform necessitates a basic shift in SMT pedagogy, not just expanded efforts.
  • Effective SMT education must foster conceptual understanding, critical thinking, and address global challenges.
  • The proposed reforms aim to enhance student achievement and prepare them for complex global issues.
