| dc.description.abstract | This paper describes the nature and focus of research in science education in the Caribbean completed and published between 1970-1987, and attempts to: (a) identify the strengths and weaknesses of the Caribbean Science Education Research System, (b) show the status of research and (c) lend direction to plans for future research in science education. The research was examined, synthesized, and organized around 11 themes: 1) agricultural education, 2) cognitive development/attainment, 3) curriculum development, 4) implementation and evaluation, 5) environmental education, 6) science achievement/orientation, 7) science attitudes, 8) nutrition/health education, 9) science teaching, 10) science teacher education, and 11) scientific literacy. Each theme is treated separately and described in terms of the nature and focus of research, findings, implications, and future directions | |
