term <strong>science literacy<\/strong> means something different: understanding science.<\/h5>\n<h3>Science literacy is broken into three components that will seem very familiar to you at this point: the concepts, skills, and connections outcomes you are filling in for your final portfolio.<\/h3>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Science Concepts<\/h4> <h5 style=\"text-align:

style=\"text-align: left;\">Some aspects of science literacy are used repeatedly, including knowledge about local species, skills involved in treating a cold, or recognizing science icons like the DNA molecule in popular culture.<\/h5>\n<h5>One of the primary ways you will test your science literacy is in situations when there is limited available information.<\/h5> <h5>Traveling to a new
