A Design Study for Integrated Science at the High School Level

0730727 Micikas生物科学课程研究(BSCS)正在与一个咨询小组合作，深入研究高中水平课程的综合科学。该项目承认，随着各州提高对毕业的科学要求，以及各州、学区和个别学校努力实施科学教育的各种标准，人们对综合科学的兴趣日益浓厚。这个项目是为了帮助理解目前关于高中综合科学的目标、位置和内容的各种假设。工作计划涉及征求与综合科学有关的群体的实质性指导，如科学组织、出版商、教师教育工作者、教师、科学教育工作者、数学教育工作者、技术专家和国家科学监督员。咨询委员会确定了设计研究的框架，并审查了平衡计分卡工作人员的流程。预计的结果是一份硬拷贝的报告，并可在BSCS网站上查阅。

0730727 Micikas The BSCS (Biological Sciences Curriculum Study) is working with an advisory panel to do an in-depth study of integrated science for high school level courses. The project acknowledges the growing interest in integrated science as states have increased their science requirements for graduation and as states, school districts, and individual schools have struggled to implement various standards in science education. This project is to help make sense of the diverse assumptions now in place about the goals, placement of, and content for integrated science in high school. The work plan involves solicitation of substantive guidance from constituencies concerned with integrated science such as scientific organizations, publishers, teacher educators, teachers, science educators, mathematics educators, specialists in technology, and state science supervisors. The advisory committee sets the framework for the design study and reviews the process of the BSCS staff. The projected outcome is a report available in hard copy and on the BSCS web site.
