Response to the Rutherford Paper. II.

The article comments on the services offered by the Association for the Education of Teachers in Science (AETS) in the U.S. According to the author, the AETS should propose and publicize standards for the training of science educators in the country. He believes that graduate students can benefit from interaction with individuals in other areas of education. A standard level of preparation and a superior category must be developed in science education. Recruitment and the depth of training required are the usual problems that occur in the preparation of a science educator.
