Chicago's James Wadsworth: The PK-8 Elementary School that Refutes Naturopathy's Central Premise

here, an example of just how BAD naturopathy doctoral supposed SCIENCE education is. Naturopathy's central premise does NOT meet the science standards of a public ELEMENTARY school. In fact, it is used as an EPITOME of the science-ejected:

001. in "Mr. Pannha Sann, M.Ed.", at wadsworthstem.com, we see a public school science teacher in action. We're told:

"Wadsworth STEM science curriculum is developed with guidance from NGSS and Common Core State Standards (CCSS) [...] 'science is replete with ideas that once seemed promising but have not withstood the test of time, such as the concept of the 'ether' or the vis vitalis (the vital force of life)' [...with the citation] 3 Dimension 1: Scientific and Engineering Practices." A Framework for K-12 Science Education: Practices, Crosscutting Concepts, and Core Ideas. Washington, DC: The National Academies Press, 2012";

hear, hear. Wow! Six years have gone by since the NAP published this summary of an ejected idea from biology and yet naturopathy maintains 'science subset vitalism' at the DOCTORAL level. Just wow.
