Goar, F. Darrell; And Others – Phys Teacher, 1970
Reports on the Moline Project, a two-year unified chemistry and physics course for high-ability students. Parallel programs in physics were developed for the other students. These programs have succeeded in increasing student enrollment in physics from 4.6 percent of the student population in 1962 to 10.6 percent in 1969. (LC)

The activities developed for this project were based on the assumption that science teaching at the junior high school level becomes more meaningful if it is idea-centered and if the ideas selected for study: (1) cut across two or more fields of science, (2) are taught through open-ended laboratory experiences with subject matter introduced as…

Pfeiffer, Carl H. – 1967
The Unified Science Program being implemented at Monona Grove High School, Monona, Wisconsin, is a four-year, concept-centered program based on the premise that all science is concerned with the nature of matter and energy and with matter-energy interactions as a function of time. The consequence of these interactions is change and it is this…
