In pockets of deep prehistory, humans made the first marks on their world. Those marks were completely new images, images that had not existed before. The painting and tooling on stone walls recorded and attempted to explain human interaction with the world. Languages, alphabets, systems of numbers and physical structures came much later. Each new tool eventually became interconnected with the others to produce more complex means of studying, recording and building the human-world relationship. These pockets of activity moved, merged, divided or died. The accumulations of perceptions, knowledge and technology continued to mix and reconnect.

Creative Cooperation Through Competition, Gail B. Wortmann, Peggy L. Steffen, Theodore L. Buttel
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
The competition includes a division for fourth through sixth grades and a division for seventh and eighth grades. Our district contains nine elementary schools and one junior high. With such a large district, we have over 400 contestants. The competition takes place in the afternoons of two school days, which releases teachers to help in supervision and allows students to be dismissed at the regular time. This helps ensure large attendance and avoids after-school transportation problems.
What's Happening In Elementary School Science, Greg Stefanich
What's Happening In Elementary School Science, Greg Stefanich
Iowa Science Teachers Journal

The Breakfast Food Challenge: Helping To Meet Personal Needs In The Science Classroom, Harold R. Hungerford, Kevin C. Wise
The Breakfast Food Challenge: Helping To Meet Personal Needs In The Science Classroom, Harold R. Hungerford, Kevin C. Wise
Iowa Science Teachers Journal
One of the four Project Synthesis goal clusters for science education focuses on meeting the personal needs of students who are maturing in a scientific/technological society. Many existing science programs fall short in this regard, particularly if teachers are seriously interested in changing learner behavior for the better. One component of learner behavior that is highly consistent with the personal needs goal cluster of Project Synthesis is helping students become more intelligent consumers in a scientific society.
