Direct linkEales, Jonathan; Laksana, Sangob – Physics Teacher, 2016
Student learning in science is improved by authentic personal experience of research projects and the publication of findings. Graduate students do this, but it is uncommon to find student research and publishing in high school science programs. We describe here the Student Research and Publishing Program (SRPP) established at International School…

Peer reviewedGardner, P. L. – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1974
Continues the work done by Mackay (1971) and Gardner (1973) in which attitudes of students enrolled in PSSC physics were assessed. (PEB)

Peer reviewedLewis, Ramon – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1975
Describes studies by L. D. Mackay and P. L. Gardner that were designed to teach attitudinal objectives in the Physical Science Study Committee (PSSC) course. Differences in results are attributed to the effect of socio-economic level, passage of time and reduced teacher enthusiasm, factors extraneous to PSSC, and a slightly different sample. (GS)

Peer reviewedGardner, P. L. – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1973
Reports data which provide a partial replication of an earlier study of changes in attitudes of Physical Science Study Committee (PSSC) physics students. Data from the present research failed to support earlier findings. Several reasons for the discrepancies are advanced. (JR)

Peer reviewedGardner, P. L. – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1975
The study was conducted in Victoria on grade 11 pupils taking the first year of a two-year course based on Physical Science Study Committee (PSSC) materials. The magnitudes of the teacher behavior and pupil personality effects were much larger than the effects associated with different curricula. (Author/MLH)

Moore, Byron Eugene – 1973
Reported is an exploratory investigation to identify predictors of the variance of measure of high school students' willingness to become involved in science and their perception of the scientist. The study was prompted by three factors: (1) declining high school physics enrollments; (2) research revealing high school students have negative…

Melander, Kathleen Mary Roan – 1971
In order to study the mechanism of student interest in a physical science course when the majority of students were interested in fields other than science, a system of measuring instruments was applied for detection of significant differences between two teaching methods used for this course. The study utilized the measured responses of 105…
