Re: 2 million teachers in 2007!

None of the sciences or mathematics are taught within
the college of education and psychology.
If the prospective teachers do not know the science after completing
our program, is it the fault of the college of education?

Is it possible for a student to sucessfully complete a program
of "science education" without mastering courses in basic
science somewhere?

successful as science teachers after college graduation)
