Research in Middle Level Education Quarterly, v20 n4 p77-105 Sum 1997

Examined learning in science concepts, process, application, creativity, attitude, and world view of students participating in the Iowa-Scope, Sequence, and Coordination (SS&C) project, part of the national reform effort using the Science-Technology-Society approach and Constructivist teaching practices. Found significant differences in learning outcomes between SS&C and non-SS&C middle-school students. (Author/KB)
