Science and the Educated American: A Core Component of Liberal Education

Jerrold Meinwald

0/5 ( ratings)

This publication from the American Academy of Arts & Sciences explores whether U.S. colleges and universities are providing students with the foundation necessary for lifelong scientific learning, noting that without a basic level of scientific literacy, the public cannot rely on even the best science journalism and communications to equip them with the ability to make informed decisions about science issues. This volume targets university administrators and faculty members who are interested in assessing and improving their institutions' curricula. In particular, detailed descriptions of five university science courses highlight innovative methods for conveying complex science information to non-science majors.
