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团体将在佛罗里达州立大学组织并举办一次会议，与会者还包括大学预科科学教师、科学管理人员和教育政策制定者。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，以帮助培养未来的科学教师、开发课程、提高科学教师的技能，并为建设一个更有科学素养的社会做出贡献。几位该领域的杰出学者将准备论文，以便提前分发，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散发，并将鼓励开展各种后续活动。佛罗里达州立大学的费用分摊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.
