Abstract
A curriculum development in science education involves addressing the interpretation of phenomena and the reasons for preferring one interpretation over another. Such considerations are at the focus of science, its history (HS) and its philosophy (PS). Hence, in order to foster a better scientific understanding, a curriculum design should aim at supplying students with the requisite tools to learn from the evolution of scientific ideas and their foundations. Here we discuss how the four pillars: science itself, its history and philosophy, and results from science education research can assist in designing a curriculum. We further demonstrate how these domains were considered in making decisions in the process of designing a curriculum, textbooks and instructional materials for teaching energy at the middle school level (7th & 9th grade levels).
