INTRODUCTORY PHYSICAL SCIENCE (I.P.S.) A USEFUL BACKGROUND FOR CHEM. STUDY STUDENTS.

The article presents a monograph that investigated the usefulness of teaching students science courses with a common subject matter and a sequence pattern of operations. Proficiency levels of students completing an Introductory Physical Science course and those taking Chemistry courses in accomplishing the objectives, which includes performing a cycle of science activity, were determined. With the study results, the researcher concluded that the analysis may be used as an instrument to determine whether or not a pair of curricula need further investigation for logical sequential relationships. Further, it proved that the difference between the two curricula lies in the manner the objectives were achieved.
