This teacher's guide has been constructed to assist in developing and implementing a life science course with an environment/ecological unit for Grade 4. Designed primarily for use with other science units, it offers numerous multidisciplinary activities which emphasize involvement in problem-solving through open-ended investigation rather than problem-doing only. Activity ideas range from a nature creep, plaster casting animal tracks, and making an ecological diorama to the study of...

The American Institutes for Research (AIR) has been involved in the design and development of career education curriculum materials for well over a decade, even before the term was originated by the U.S. Office of Education. This led to the involvement of AIR in the design and development of the Comprehensive Career Education Model (CCEM). Four general constraints under which career education programs must operate are: they must be economically feasible, they must be able to operate with...

There is nationwide pressure by the taxpaying public to have teachers be accountable for what they are trying to teach. Massive inservice education programs may become necessary for school districts to equip teachers to cope with this change. Staff development in many school districts often consists of a lecture or speech by some "expert" on instructional problems. A better path is the use of systematic instructional techniques and methods on instructional problems. Since universities...

The most important prerequisite to group creativity in curriculum development is a climate of free inquiry, free expression, and objective criticism. An atmosphere such as this develops from the personal security, active participation, and creativity of each team member. A period of negative feelings caused by frustration and failure when the individual educational philosophies of team members are criticized and torn apart is necessary to the eventual unification of the team; when the pieces...

Social studies is a survivor, enduring as a mainstay of the American curriculum for nearly 100 years. Its longevity is not a tribute to its curricular power nor can we credit a cadre of finely trained professionals for maintaining its influence. Rather, social studies' remarkable survival is due to the near-universal acceptance of the idea that this chameleon-like entity allows practitioners to cast and recast its form and substance into whatever shape desired. This...

In the controversy over the inclusion of the teaching-learning process (curriculum development and instruction) as a subject of collective bargaining, discussion should focus on the changes which it might produce in the teaching-learning process. Curriculum development is unlikely to be greatly affected by collective bargaining, and any changes in classroom behavior which result from teacher control over curriculum development will be minor. At the elementary and secondary level the main forces...
