聚合物是一种具有巨大环境和经济影响的材料,但在中等教育科学课程中通常不会讨论。我们描述了一个程序,在该程序中,大学导师开发和实施动手,聚合物相关的实验,以补充一个标准的,州摄政规定的高中化学课程,以及中学选修课程的聚合物。互动实验和反馈导向的设计被强调为该计划成功的关键因素。这些实验是在两个截然不同的机构中进行的:一个是纽约市为贫困女性开设的磁铁高中,另一个是为有特权的男女学生开设的私立中学;相似之处和差异是并列的。
Polymers are materials with vast environmental and economic ramifications, yet are generally not discussed in secondary education science curricula. We describe a program in which college mentors develop and implement hands-on, polymer-related experiments to supplement a standard, state regents-prescribed high school chemistry course, as well as a middle school elective course on polymers. Interactive experimentation and feedback-oriented design are highlighted as critical elements to the success of the program. The experiments have been executed in two vastly different institutions: a New York City magnet high school for underprivileged females, and a private middle school for privileged male and female students; the similarities and differences are juxtaposed.
