| dc.description.abstract | Two approaches to primary science curriculum development in the Eastern Caribbean are outlined--one being internal to each country and the other arising from the regional Primary Education Project. Stress is placed on the cooperative efforts of educators in the countries and in the region, including The University of the West Indies (UWI) and science teachers' associations. Evaluations and constraints are mentioned, and the paper identifies a need for enhanced teacher training, communication, and in-school facilities. Attention also needs to be paid to the status of science in schools and research on how children learn | |
