The
American Association for the Advancement of Science
released a guide on reducing the amount of material expected to be covered in American public school
science
and science related
math
. The goal is to reduce less relevant content that is taught. They believe
teacher
s are given too much material to cover with
efficiency
and totality. The amount of material, according to the AAAS, that teachers are expected to cover is too much for their one year with a group of students.
Key material they want to cut includes: the
periodic table
,
acid
s and
base
s,
right-triangle
trigonometry
,
isomer
s,
organic acid
s, and
photoelectric effect
s. They also wish to limit
vocabulary
to
technical language
that is more broadly useful and essential such as
gene
,
nucleus
, and
cell wall
, and in turn skip limited words such as
oxidation
,
respiration
, and
mitochondria
. They believe this does not "water down" science but makes it more useful and applicable for the students learning it.
Resources include: Documentation from the AAAS and USA Today
