- Summary:
-
Suggested in this paper are priorities for the role of cognitive psychology in science/mathematics curriculum development and teacher education. Areas discussed include: (1) science education as a national concern; (2) how rapid advances in science knowledge and cognitive psychological knowledge have created a sense of urgency about developing a modern "science of science education"; and (3) the impact of cognitive psychology on science and mathematics education. Considered in the latter area are: a framework for a science of science education, advances in cognitive psychology important for a science of science education, findings from cognitive psychology of interest to curriculum developers and teacher educators (including the development of alternative conceptions), and likely concerns of cognitive psychology, such as research on the organization of the mind, which may have a profound impact on the science of science education.
