History and Philosophy of Science and the Teaching of Science

一个由科学历史学家和科学教育家组成的国际小组将在佛罗里达州立大学组织和主持一次会议，大学前科学教师、科学管理人员和教育政策制定者也将参加。会议将探讨如何在各级科学教学中纳入科学史和科学哲学的元素，以促进未来科学教师的准备、课程开发、提高科学实习生的技能，并促进一个更具科学素养的社会的发展。该领域的几位著名学者将准备论文提前分发，其他与会者将在会议上发表演讲。所有会议记录都将广泛出版和传播，并将鼓励开展各种后续活动。佛罗里达州立大学分担的费用将占国家科学基金会资金的9.9%。

An international group of historians of science and science educators will organize and conduct a conference at Florida State University which will also involve pre-college science teachers, science administrators, and educational policy makers. The conference will explore ways in which inclusion of elements of the history and philosophy of science in science teaching at all levels can contribute to the preparation of future science teachers, curriculum development, enhancement of the skills of practising science teachers, and contribute to the development of a more scientifically literate society. Several distinguished scholars in the field will prepare papers for advance distribution and other participants will make presentations at the conference. All conference proceedings will be published and disseminated broadly and a variety of follow-up activities will be encouraged. Cost sharing by Florida State University will total 9.9% of the National Science Foundation funding.
