It discussed the key issues about how to integrate history of science into teaching. In addition, we hoped to reach the goal of articulating teaching exemplars in the interweavement of theory and practice with the help of the group members'' critical conversation and discuss. According to the performance of redesign process, the research brought up the main discoveries and outcomes: 1.The teaching exemplars combined with context could help teachers to understand the direction of integrate history of science into teaching and provide them with practical assistance in learning how to integrate history of science into teaching. 2.This research integrated the agreement of the research group in every issue by dint of offering the teaching exemplars integrated history of science, which had been articulated in the redesign process. 3.The research group could share quite a few knowledge and experience in redesign process; thus they could get improvement both in teaching theory and in teaching practice.
