Although undergraduates have long held a role as teaching assistants for introductory science courses at liberal arts colleges and universities, educational institutions often do not provide these students with opportunities to explore science teaching and pedagogy. At Brandeis University, we designed an internship course to help increase the…

This study provides data on the offerings and enrollment in science and mathematics in public high schools during the fall of 1956. The information was obtained from a 10% sample of these schools selected at random. The same schools were used for a similar survey in 1954 and the data in that survey are compared with the data in the 1956 survey.…

The success of two engineering and technology-oriented secondary school programs is discussed. Also presented is the Man Made World and the Technology-People-Environment at two suburban high schools. (BB)

Described is a study to determine the long-range impact of the Pennsylvania Nuclear Science Prolect. Findings include that fewer than one-half participants are still teaching the pilot program, that school/teachers who "dropped out" averaged three years from initial involvement, and that student interest and scheduling problems are two…

Presents an evaluative study of the Nuffield A-level organic chemistry course which was conducted in the United Kingdom. Questionnaire surveys were used to compare the course content with the content Nuffield teachers and university lecturers thought should be included in an A-level course. (HM)

Summarizes results of a survey on teachers' views of the Nuffield A-level physics course (NAP) including, among others, course content, philosophy, examinations, organization, and individual units. Suggests that most teachers surveyed were satisfied with their NAP course. (SK)
