Excerpt from My Own Science Problems
Education in a Changing World. Great changes in educational methods and objectives have recently taken place. The growth of the junior high school is an experiment in education brought about through a desire on the part of educators to integrate the work of the elementary school with that of the high school. The growing emphasis on secondary education has forced these changes in organization. Along with this has come a new psychology of learning which emphasizes individual learning rather than group teaching. As a result of these changes in ideals and objectives, the curriculum has come into the limelight. Much recent work has been done in curriculum making, and while some has been scientifically made some is of little value. There is much evidence that the newer curricula in science are being made with objectives that are attainable. Changes in the world of today have been brought about by means of science, and some seventh grade pupils of today know more about some of the applications of science than their fathers do. There is need for interpretation of these changes in terms of the child's activities, especially in terms of his leisure-time activities. The modern science curriculum recognizes this.
If we consider what has just been said, it would seem that the underlying philosophy of the course should be based on the relationship of the environment to the child, first as an individual, and later as a growing citizen in the environment of school, community, and nation.
