Peer reviewedPappelis, Christine K.; And Others – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1980
Supported by this experimental study was the hypothesis that science process skills of premedical and predental students could be improved by a semester-long course modeled after the AAAS Science - A Process Approach curriculum. Recommendations are made regarding the inclusion of science process skills in college science courses. (CS)
