Resumen: |
Este volumen editado reúne una amplia gama de estudios internacionales sobre educación cientÃfica, centrándose en la interacción entre la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de las ciencias. Reconoce la complejidad presente en la educación actual, asociada con los principales problemas relacionados con la ciencia que enfrenta la sociedad, como el cambio climático, las enfermedades y pandemias, los conflictos globales por la energÃa, los alimentos y el agua. Los estudios discutidos en este volumen se centran en presentar diferentes oportunidades para enseñar estos temas complicados con el fin de encontrar la simplicidad dentro de la complejidad y hacerla accesible a los estudiantes. Reúnen los desafÃos de preparar a los estudiantes de hoy para que se conviertan en ciudadanos del mañana cientÃficamente informados. |

Introduction (David Geelan and Kim Nichols) -- Part I: Learning About Wicked Problems -- Chapter 1. Climate change education: Simple or complex? The impact of culture on students' willingness to reduce global warming (Keith Skamp, Edward Boyes and Martin Stanisstreet) -- Chapter 2. Investigating students' self-efficacy and self-concept in science through collaborative inquiry: Unpacking the 'hidden' complexity within data (Debra Panizzon, Bruce White, Katrina Elliott and Alex Semmens) -- Chapter 3. Using Socioscientific Issues to Promote the Critical Thinking Skills of Year 10 Science Students in Diverse School Contexts (Vaille Dawson And Grady Venville) -- Part II: Teacher Preparation and Retention: Supporting Early-Career Science Teachers -- Chapter 4. Chicken wings and a deflated football: Metaphors of the complexity of learning to teach science and mathematics out-of-field (Linda Hobbs and Frances Quinn) -- Chapter 5. Teacher Retention: Supporting Early-Career Science Teachers (MerrynDawborn-Gundlach) -- Chapter 6. Exploring the Nature, and Teachers' Understanding, of the National Curriculum Statement (NCS, Grades R – 12): Navigating the Changing Landscape of Science Education through the Curriculum Assessment and Policy Statement (CAPS) in Post-Apartheid South Africa (Julius Ajayi Eyitayo) -- Part III: Making the Complexities of Physical Sciences Accessible -- Chapter 7. Teaching electricity to Year 6 primary students using representational pedagogies: from simple circuits to complex ideas (Peter Hubber and Christine Preston) -- Chapter 8. Complexity in primary children's representations of Science and Mathematics concepts (Christine Preston, Jennifer Way and Eleni Smyrnis) -- Chapter 9. Making the complex history of chemistry accessible: Edgar Fahs Smith (1854-1928), chemical researcher, administrator, educator, and student of chemistry's history (William P. Palmer) -- Chapter 10. Can the complexities of developing students' literacy skills around physical science concepts benefit from a singular approach to teaching academic vocabulary? (Chris Nielsen) -- Index. |

Summary : |
This edited volume brings together a broad range of international science education studies, focusing on the interplay of teaching and learning science. It recognizes the complexity present in today's education, associated with major science related issues faced by society, such as climate change, diseases and pandemics, global conflicts over energy, food and water. The studies discussed in this volume are focused on presenting different opportunities to teach these convoluted matters in order to find simplicity within the complexity and make it accessible to learners. They bring together the challenges of preparing the students of today to become scientifically informed citizens of tomorrow. |
