摘要
We begin with the absurdity of ninth-grade biology to bewail the fate of high school science education as one component of a wholly inadequate K-12 education. Our proposal for a coherent physics-chemistry-biology core curriculum for all high school students leads naturally to seeking the connections between the sciences, the sciences and mathematics, and indeed to the social sciences and the humanities. Our goal is literacy-scientific and humanistic-as the sensible goal for a 21st century high school graduate.
