- Title
MEETING THE CHALLENGE OF COMMUNITY COLLEGE SCIENCE INSTRUCTION.
- Authors
Baumel, Howard B.; Berger, J. Joel
- Abstract
The article addresses the problem of reading comprehension among community college students as they affect science instruction. It points out that science curricula should serve both the transfer and the terminal student through separate appropriately designed courses. It adds that emphasis should be given on the achievement of scientific literacy in a technological society. The article suggests the method of instruction to be developmental in nature where the problem is motivated in such a manner that interest is aroused and the students are guided to the solutions of problems by analytic questioning.
