Science Teaching and a New Teacher Culture: Challenges and Opportunities (Sociocultural Explorations of Science Education #31)
by Mario Roberto Quintanilla Gatica Agustín Adúriz-BravoThis edited volume discusses various epistemological positions about science teaching and the complex processes of understanding and learning in the classroom. Including discussions around Natural Sciences teacher training models, as well as the development of logics of reflection on practice based on critical and dialogic interpretative visions guiding higher level competency learning. It brings together contributions from researchers promoting a coherent and robust methodological analysis, theoretically based on the systematization of evidence in different contexts within Europe and Latin America.While supporting innovation in teacher training and science teaching, it offers specific contributions and suggestions for classroom work in the subjects of Physics, Chemistry and Biology. It includes didactic guidelines for experimental practices, for the evaluation of scientific learning, as well as for the use of epistemology and the history of science in teaching. In addition, it’s considered an important contribution to the challenge of rebuilding science education programs as well as its correct implementation in schools and universities. This book is a translation of an original Spanish publication. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation.
Science, Technology and Modernity: An Interdisciplinary Approach
by Kavita S. JerathThis book provides a full scale description and discussion of science, technology, society, cross-cultural communication and modernity and is presented at a level that makes it accessible to the interested academic. Starting with the historical overview, the text outlines the relevance of technology today and in the future. Then follows an introduction to the discovery and invention by agricultural, feudal, capitalist and socialist systems, and conversely the ways in which science and technology has altered economic, social, and political beliefs and practices during industrial revolutions and have transformed the whole nature of human society. Tracing the relationship between science and technology from dawn to civilization to the twenty first century, the book argues that technology is applied science and vice versa and this phenomenon emerged relatively recently, as industry and governments began funding scientific research that would lead to new technologies. The book goes beyond technology by also describing the path from modernity to post modernity and discussing the theories of modernity. Further the internet and social media receive increased attention as well. Finally, the discussion turns to the future structure of society and gender equality, expected to have a more distributed future generation, thereby addressing the synergies between education system, globalization and cross-cultural communication.This book is designed as the primary general textbook for Engineers at the undergraduate level in any university. This course is a multidisciplinary elective course from emerging areas in the 4- year institution and is a required course in most universities.
