The units to be studied include â€" matter, microsâ€" copy, work and energy, and some effects of heat on matter. These are promotâ€" ed by the Ontario teachers‘ federation by means of workshops held all over Onâ€" tario. David Woodhall, science consultant for The Waterâ€" loo County board of educaâ€" tion. who coâ€"ordinates the course, said that former Ontario teachers‘ _ federaâ€" tion â€" sponsored s cience workshops. had been for grades 4 to 8 teachers, all of whom had attended the same workshops regardless of their grade level. About forty public and separate school elemenâ€" tary science teachers will take part. This would be the first time that specific inâ€"service programs had been given for grades 7 and 8 teachers. The aim of the workâ€" shops, he said, was to upâ€" grade the scientific knowâ€" ledge of teachers whose reâ€" sponsibility to provide curâ€" rent information to their students, is continually inâ€" creasing as man‘s technoâ€" logical and scientific soâ€" phistication â€" develops â€" all over the world. Emphasis would be placâ€" ed on teaching students to learn _ by ‘"doing"‘ and through practical use of scientific equipment. It is no longer sufficient, said Mr. Woodhall, for teachers only to be aware of basic scientific princiâ€" ples and their application. These had now to be preâ€" sented to students in such a way that the students work with the principles, using a variety of skills. Instructors at the workâ€" shops are Murray Finn, Rockway â€" public school, Kitchener; Bruce Ryans, William G. Davis public school, Preston; and Rick Lankowski, Monsignor Halâ€" ler separate school. Among the guest speakâ€" ers will be Mr. Jack West,. Spectrum _ Scientific Supâ€" plies, Toronto, and Mr. Bob Stinsom, from Ontario institute for studies in eduâ€" cation. Sixtyâ€"one thousand visitors to the Center saw the exhiâ€" bition. Among them, school children, women‘s organâ€" izations and members of »the Ontario government.
