Indigenous science relates to both the science knowledge of long-resident, usually oral culture peoples, as well as the science knowledge of all peoples who as participants in culture are affected by the worldview and relativist interests of their home communities. This article explores aspects of multicultural science and pedagogy and describes a rich and well-documented branch of indigenous s...

In preclinical studies of antiherpetic drug activity, it was proved that Proteflazid has polypharmacological effects. It blocks DNA polymerase and thymidine kinase in the herpes-infected cells, induces the synthesis of endogenous αand γ-interferons, has an antioxidant activity and provides an apoptosismodulating effect. In clinical practice, the etiopathogenetic drug efficacy of Proteflazid (dr...

Adult Beagles (36) and mixed-strain hounds (4), in 8 groups of 5 dogs each, were used to evaluate organic matter digestibility of 4 diets having no fibrous ingredient (CON), beet pulp (BP), soybean hulls (SH), or cellulose (CEL), with or without 0.11% mannan oligosaccharide (MOS; Bio-Mos r , Alltech, Inc., Nicholasville, KY).

Curriculum materials are a crucial tool with which teachers engage in teaching practice. For preservice teachers to learn to use science curriculum materials in productive ways, they must develop a conception of themselves as elementary teachers in which the use of science curriculum materials is a valued dimension of science-teaching practice. We define those dimensions of teachers’ profession...
