The Human Organism discusses human biology as exemplary of biological systems.The Living Environment delineates basic facts and ideas about how living things function and how they interact with one another and their environment.The Physical Setting lays out basic ideas about the content and structure of the universe (on astronomical, terrestrial, and sub-microscopic levels) and the physical principles on which it seems to run.The Nature of Technology examines how technology extends our abilities to change the world and the tradeoffs necessarily involved.The Nature of Mathematics describes the creative processes involved in both theoretical and applied mathematics.The Nature of Science includes the scientific world view, scientific methods of inquiry, and the nature of the scientific enterprise.Science for All Americans includes specific recommendations for learning in the following areas: Project 2061 defines science literacy broadly, emphasizing the connections among ideas in the natural and social sciences, mathematics, and technology. In coherent prose, it articulates and connects fundamental ideas in science without technical vocabulary and dense detail. Science for All Americans defines science literacy and lays out some principles for effective learning and teaching. The panels' recommendations were integrated into Project 2061's 1989 publication, Science for All Americans. With expert panels of scientists, mathematicians, and technologists, Project 2061 set out to identify what was most important for the next generation to know and be able to do in science, mathematics, and technology-what would make them science literate. What scientific and technological changes will they see in their lifetime? How can today's education prepare them to make sense of how the world works to think critically and independently and to lead interesting, responsible, and productive lives in a culture increasingly shaped by science and technology? Children who were just starting school then will see the return of the Comet in 2061. Project 2061 began its work in 1985-the year Halley's Comet passed near Earth.
