	TENNESSEE SCIENCE FRAMEWORK KINDERGARTEN through TWELVE WRITING COMMITTEE
		The Science Standards are built upon the premise that science is an active process and that all students must have instruction that incorporates a multitude of active learning experiences.
		Science is a creative process that attempts to provide learners with a greater understanding of the natural world.
		Science is conducted according to formal and informal rules and assumptions.

		WASHINGTON Dec 14, 2004 — U.S. eighth-grade students are improving in science and math compared with international peers, but the nation's fourth-graders have stagnant scores and are slipping behind in both subjects, according to a study of achievement across the globe.
		The Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study, which covers content taught in schools in all participating countries, is an academic benchmark in the primary and middle grades.
		While the science progress has come largely since the last test, in 1999, the math rise came mainly between 1995 and 1999 and not in the recent years.

	Issues in S and T, Summer 2003, Science in the New Russia
		Science was heavily concentrated in one republic--Russia--and its government thought that changing the political, social, and economic systems was more important than helping science, which was regarded as a luxury.
		However, the country's science is emerging from its crisis under heavy pressure, much of it from abroad, to change the way it is managed and financed.
		The result was an exceptionally elitist organization of science, a system in which less prestigious researchers, such as the young or university teachers, had great difficulty in fulfilling their potential.

	Science Fiction Weekly Interview
		After the war, Truman was intent on keeping science subordinate to civilian or now layperson or non-scientist political control, and the postwar organization of federal support for science reflected that.
		Say then that science is an attempt to move out of all that, a proto-politics or alternative politics in which ostensibly neutral values or methodologies are actually stabs at utopian spaces where justice rules.
		It was fascinating—another place in science that is intensely dramatic and subjective, but rarely portrayed in science fiction, or in fiction or nonfiction of any kind.

		However, some important elements of global Earth science appear to be excluded from the ESE program (e.g., the population-driven contributions to land cover change), possibly because they are addressed in the programs of other agencies.
		Discussion of technology development is limited to a brief list of strategic elements (lines 570-588), lists of technology requirements needed to support future missions in the focus area roadmaps and the 2025 vision (lines 964-1025), and passing mention of the New Millennium Program for technology flight demonstrations.
		As noted in several places above, although the draft document lists important science questions (lines 1032-1078), it includes very little discussion of how the science will be addressed, how the questions are (or will be) prioritized, and when answers are expected.
