Pan-Canadian Science Framework. Product and Process

Resumen

The focus of this article is the Common Framework of Science Learning Outcomes, K-12 developed under the aegis of the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada (CMEC). In February 1995 CMEC adopted the Pan-Canadian Protocol for Collaboration on School Curriculum, which formed the basis for the Pan-Canadian Science Project resulting in the Framework as a deliverable. Science consultants from provincial and territorial ministries of education, together with classroom science teachers working in Canada's two oficial languages 4nglish and French- were involved in the development of the framework.
