Abstract

Since receiving a federal grant in November 1985, 25 Keystone area educators have been working with AEA 1 consultants and University of Iowa science education specialists to expand the use of investigative activities in the science studies of Iowa students. The published results of their work, 27 units adaptable to upper elementary and junior high classes, are now available to other interested teachers. The following article by the project leaders (1) explains the workshop plan and purposes employed by the project participants, (2) describes the focus and creation of their final products, a repertoire of new science units, and (3) lists the units now available and information on obtaining them.
