The Del Mod System. The Delaware Model: A Systems Approach to Science Education.

Overview & Synopsis

This report describes the general goal of the Del Mod System as the coordination of all segments of science and mathematics teacher education in the state, and in the long run all teaching in the state, so that a maximum impact can be made in reaching all students from pre-elementary through doctoral level. The specific objectives are listed as follows: change in teacher and student attitudes and education over a 5-year period as a result of research, pilot projects and pre- and in-service training, and the incorporation of science and math teachers of mathematical functions into daily classroom practices. Included in this report are tables, charts, project summaries, and evaluation charts of the system. Additional material is available in the local collection of Clearinghouse. (JA)
