Coherence of Nature of Science and Inquiry in Science Instruction
Original language description
Although the reasons for concern about the quality of science instruction differ from nation to nation, the primary rallying point is perceived level of scientific literacy among each nation's populace. In each case, whether the label "scientific literacy" was used, concerns have typically focused on the usefulness and relevancy of the subject matter included in science curriculum. The ability to use scientific knowledge to make informed personal and societal decisions is the essence of what contemporary science educators define as scientifically literacy. The phrase less is more has often been invoked to communicate the desire that instructional time focus on in-depth understanding of a reduced set of unifying science concepts. Helping students develop adequate conceptions of nature of science (NOS) and scientific inquiry has been a perennial objective in science education. The current curricular documents emphasis NOS and scientific inquiry.
