Abstract: CHAPTER 1 characteristics of teachers, and the commitment of students to science education.I have wanted to be able to improve my students' understanding and appreciation for science.Through courses in my degree program, I gained some insight into the literature and research regarding science learning.I see inconsistencies and gaps in our empirical foundations and only limited application of these research results at the day-to-day level of the public schools in my district.It is my hope that the information provided by a careful analysis of the personal and ecological variables that may influence science education will encourage school personnel to improve science achievement and will serve as a guide for raising the appreciation and understanding of science in the public education setting.
