Pogrow, Stanley

Educational Leadership, v50 n8 p39-45 May 1993

For over three years, University of Arizona staff have been reviewing middle school curricular materials in various content areas to identify exemplary models. Study disclosed only 1 exemplary mathematics curriculum (18-year-old Real Math series by Open Court) and only 1 superior science curriculum (Canadian Science Plus series). No comprehensive social studies or language arts curricular materials were acceptable. (MLH)
