Abstract
This three-part article, reprinted by permission from The Los Angeles Times, discusses solutions to the science education crisis. The first section surveys how a post-Sputnik experiment in teaching the brightest students leftmost of a generation bored. Part 2 looks at minority schools with hands-on techniques that help students grasp abstract concepts. And the last section urges a national strategy to reformulate mathematics and science.
