Lerch, Robert D. – Science Education, 1973
The study was conducted to evaluate divergent physics laboratories in accomplishing objectives of Commission on College Physics. A questionnaire was used to collect data from students. Analysis revealed students in divergent laboratories had more opportunity to choose or design their own experiments and develop a model for data interpretation. (PS)

White, Richard T.; Mackay, Lindsay D. – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1972
The study was conducted to analyze the suitability of cognitive abilities described in Bloom's Taxonomy to PSSC based examinations in Australia. Point biserial correlations were used to analyze results. No evidence was found for relevancy between ability, as represented in the Taxonomy, and questions constructed in relation to content validity.…
