Individualized Science: Relevance for the 1970's.

The article discusses the development of Individualized Science (IS), a new science program in the U.S. designed for maximum relevance to each student and to the fast-changing circumstances of today. IS is being designed to enable each child to meet the challenges of the extraordinary era. The aim is no less than the development of a complete individualized science learning system to serve the student from the time he begins elementary school up to his entry into high school. The five identified goals of IS include: the Student Self-Direction Goal, the Student Co-Evaluation Goal, the Affective Goal, the Inquiry Goal, and the Scientific Literacy Goal.
