Abstract: | Abstract This paper describes a study concerned with the ranking of five major goals of biology instruction by biology teachers, college preparatory biology students, non-college preparatory biology students, and public school administrators in order to determine the relative emphasis each group believed should be given to a socia/environmental goal. The hypothesis of no difference in the ranking of instructional goals was retained and the ranking of the socia/environmental goal by the four groups also did not differ significantly. The subjects in this study seemed to prefer the social/environmental goal in fourth place ahead of a career orientation to the teaching and learning of biology. |
