Reaching for Science Literacy.

Steen, Lynn Arthur

Change, v23 n4 p10-19 Jul-Aug 1991

Introductory college courses in science and mathematics are largely ineffective in either instructing students on the nature of science and mathematics or introducing students to further study. Legitimate introductions to mathematical and scientific literacy must engage students in the disciplines and equip them for further study. (MSE)
