Twenty-Five Years of the Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education: Past, Present, Future
摘要
It has been 25 years since the Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education first appeared. In this article, I first look back at the year 2001, both in general terms and in terms of science education; I then consider the current state of science education; finally, I spend most of the article looking at what school science might (should, in my view) be like in the future. I examine issues to do with the motivation of school students and teachers, the content of school science, how school science is taught, and where and when teaching about science might take place.
