EJSE Vol. 2, No. 1 - Neathery: Elem. and sec. students; perceptions toward science (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) |
 | | Attitudes associated with science appear to be affecting student participation in science as a subject (AAAS, 1989; Koballa, Crawley, and Shrigley, 1990) and impacting performance in science (IAEP, 1992; Weiss, 1987; Linn, 1992). |
 | | In the international study (IAEP, 1992), the highest-performing 13-year-old students were those in Korea, Taiwan, and Switzerland; students from seven countries including France, Scotland, Spain, the United States, England, and China performed at the IAEP (1992) average of 67 percent. |
 | | The contents of the science subtests of the SRA are based on learner objectives most commonly taught in science courses in the United States. |
