PUB TYPE Reports Evaluative/Feasibility (142) Books (010) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC06 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Beliefs; *Cultural Influences; Elementary Secondary Education; Foreign Countries; Moral Values; Science Curriculum; Science Instruction; Social Values; Student Attitudes; Technology; *Values ABSTRACT This book asserts that beliefs and values are integral to the scientific enterprise and the theory and practice of education and hence science education, and that it is desirable to explore such matters in the classroom. It aims at helping science teachers demonstrate how spiritual, moral, social, and cultural factors affect science. Chapter 1, "Everybody Needs Standards," begins by looking at ways in which beliefs and values are located within science and within education and moves on to fundamental matters about the bases of belief systems. Chapter 2, "What Science Cannot Discover, Mankind Cannot Know?" considers how beliefs about the nature of the scientific enterprise have affected popular views about the status of science, and the particular educational task this presents. The ways in which beliefs and values affect the language of science, its models, and metaphors, is the theme of chapter 3, "Every Comparison Has a Limp." Chapter 4, "Wanted! Alive or Dead," addresses issues of environmental beliefs and models. Chapcer 5, "In the Beginning," deals with teaching about the Earth in space and traces out current interest in metaphysical as well as physical questions about origin.

  • The Honourable Leo Bernier
    The Honourable Leo Bernier The Honourable Leo Bernier (born 1929) is a former provincial politician in Ontario. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1966 to 1987, and was a Cabinet Minister in the governments of Bill Davis and Frank Miller. Bernier was a member of the Progressive Conservative Party. Bernier was born in Hudson and educated in the area. He became the general manager of Bernier & Sons Contractors, and served as President of the Hudson Chamber of Commerce. He is an honorary member of the Royal Canadian Legion and the Knights of Columbus. Bernier first ran for the Ontario legislature in the 1963 provincial election, and lost to Liberal-Labour candidate Robert Gibson by 840 votes in Kenora. Gibson died in 1966, and Bernier was elected in a by-election to replace him. He was returned by an increased margin in the 1967 provincial election, and served as a backbench supporter of the John Robarts administration. When Bill Davis succeeded Robarts as Premier, he appointed Bernier as his Minister of Mines and Northern Affairs. Bernier was easily re-elected in the 1971 provincial election and he was given additional responsibilities as Minister of Lands and Forests. During the same year, his portfolios were restructured as the Ministry of Natural Resources. Bernier was re-elected without serious opposition in the elections of 1975, 1977, 1981 and 1985. He was named Minister of Northern Affairs in February 1977 and held this position for more than eight years. Bernier was the most powerful minister for Northern Ontario in the Bill Davis government, and was sometimes called “King of the North”.

  • Report on the Kashechewan First Nation and Its People
    Report on the Kashechewan First Nation and its People Alan Pope October 31st, 2006 I dedicate this Report to the children of Kashechewan Alan Forward I was appointed by the Government of Canada on June 6, 2006 as Special Representative of the Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada in the matter of the current issues and future relocation options of the community of Kashechewan. My mandate is to consult with Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, the Government of Ontario, and the Kashechewan First Nation and to present to the Minister, the Honourable Jim Prentice, a plan that offers long-term and sustainable improvements to the lives of all Kashechewan residents. Included in this plan is a consideration of relocation site options and the recommendation of the one that will offer the greatest advantages of improved economic and individual opportunities to the members of the Kashechewan First Nation. I am also to recommend to the Minister the appropriate levels of financial and process management to implement the plan. In fulfilling this mandate I have examined and made recommendations concerning community, health, and social services and facilities in Kashechewan; financial issues affecting community life; and internal community governance issues. All of these matters will affect the quality of life in the new community, regardless of where it is located. My research consisted of a review of historical documents and information, investigation of current deficiencies in community services, interviews with band councils and individual council members, discussions in public meetings and private visits with numerous families and members of the Kashechewan First Nation, surveys of young people and community members, open houses, and advice from administrators and service providers throughout northeastern Ontario.
