Elby, Andrew; Yerdelen-Damar, Sevda – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2020
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Curriculum Development: Theory into Design.] In the "standard" physics education research curriculum-development model, researchers are cast primarily as producers of curricula and instructors are cast primarily consumers, i.e., adopters and adapters. We illustrate a complementary model in…

Gray, D. J. – 1989
This report outlines the range of existing problems in science education and proposes that a modular based physical science curriculum would contribute to solving some of the identified problems and produce numerous advantages. The physical science curriculum will be divided into a "core" of fundamental modules (the absolute minimum…

Huppert, J. – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1984
Explains how curriculum materials of a modular course in high school microbiology developed for a kibbutz in Israel were disseminated to become part of the national science curriculum. The evolution and development of national and inservice workshops for science teachers to prepare them to teach this course are discussed. (MBR)

Friedler, Yael; Tamir, Pinchas – 1984
The intended, perceived, implemented, and achieved curriculum of high school biology classes in Israel was studied using a variety of data sources and research methodologies. The intended curriculum was identified by analysis of commonly used laboratory manuals. The perceived curriculum was captured by procuring the views of teachers and students…

Ukens, Leon; Hein, Warren W.; Johnson, Patsy Ann; Layman, John W. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2004
Powerful Ideas in Physical Science (PIPS) is a preservice curriculum that provides modules for physical science courses designed for elementary education majors. Because the courses are built on the learning cycle approach, students develop concepts from activities and then apply this conceptual knowledge. A summative evaluation done by Horizon…
