b) Schools became more practical to cater to middle class who was preparing to enter workforce, and it also began to prepare "new" Americans (immigrants).
c) Lots of science subjects were taught, and changed throughout -- physiology, botany, zoology, physics, chemistry, astronomy, physical geography, and geology.
d) As said in b, schools became more practical due to industrialization.

2) The fear of soviet union taking over the United States in terms of power and science knowledge.

3) Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. They were equally important, the focus was for high schoolers to become scientists.

4) There was a stronger focus in the science education.

5) Researchers and NSF]]> 2023-02-27 23:14:26 UTC https://padlet.com/rtanzila123/zar9z8q7eac8c4dw/wish/2497138396 G3 Responses shines121 https://padlet.com/rtanzila123/zar9z8q7eac8c4dw/wish/2497138962 The CRSE (Commission for Reorganizing Secondary Education) was formed out of concern that students were no staying in secondary schools until graduation. Often leaving to begin work.

Secondary schools needed to better balance  students' desires for going off to college or those on more of a vocational "track." 

Science was revamped to better bridge the gap between intellectual & everyday applications. Science focused on introducing new technologies--in the context of life or the workplace.]]> 2023-02-27 23:15:12 UTC https://padlet.com/rtanzila123/zar9z8q7eac8c4dw/wish/2497138962
