- Title
CONCEPTS OF LIGHT AND SOUND IN THE INTERMEDIATE GRADES.
- Authors
Nelson, Pearl Astrid
- Abstract
The article cites a study that explored how children acquire science concepts, the level of their understanding, and whether socio-economic background and intelligence were related to this learning. The two areas of light and sound before and after a planned teaching program were used as the material for the study, and 118 boys and girls from the intermediate grades of the elementary school were employed as the children to be studied. And the investigator gave a workshop in physical science to the teachers of two private schools where no previous instruction in physical science had taken place.
