Abstract

The article outlines a broader model of scientific enterprise which can serve as the basis for a curriculum structure in Science. This model will include the conceptual and process dimensions of Science along with their relation to technology and society. It is postulated that these four dimensions and the interactions are essential requisites to an understanding of science. At the outset, it is necessary to define limitations which have been arbitrarily in terms of a curriculum structure. Also, it is necessary to include the concepts of Science to be a part of the instructional program.
