Dr. Sreyashi Jhumki Basu was a scholar committed to equity and social justice in science education who passed away in December
2008. In this essay, I describe Jhumki’s research and the call to action her life’s work has laid out for the science education
community. In particular, I draw attention to the role of critical science agency in learning and the democratic science pedagogy
model that Jhumki developed to support students in crafting such agency.

Exploring the contexts of urban science classrooms. Part 1: Investigating corporate and communal practices 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Christopher Emdin 《Cultural Studies of Science Education》2007,2(2):319-350
In this paper, I discuss the existence of varying ideologies and perspectives within urban science classrooms and uncover
the importance of focusing on student and teacher practices as a means to bridge these disconnections. Specifically, I describe
the existence of corporate and communal ideologies and the dynamics that create the misalignment between groups that hold
allegiances to these varying belief systems. Utilizing three allied theoretical frames, this paper provides a multi layered
and timely analysis of the teaching of science in an urban high school in New York City. I conjoin Bourdieu’s sociocultural
theory, an analysis of social life through the use of the structure|agency dialectic, and a theorizing of corporate and communal
practice to embark on a journey into how African American and Latino/a students’ ways of knowing and being can be utilized
to meet the goal of improving their success in science.

Reconstructed fairy tales provide a different point of view and challenge the assumptions of a common set of values; for that
reason, these stories provide a medium in which to examine power relationships in texts by applying a critical multicultural
analysis (Botelho & Rudman, forthcoming, 2008, A critical multicultural analysis of children’s literature: Mirrors, windows and doors. New York: Lawrence Erlbaum) to identify and analyze power relations of Rumpelstiltskin (Grimm & Grimm, 1812/1987, New York: Bantam) and Rumpelstiltskin’s Daughter (Stanley, 1997, New York: Morrow Junior Books). Specifically, this study examines how power is exercised on a continuum: domination, collusion,
resistance, and agency. Findings indicate that by identifying and questioning text ideologies, critical readers can consider
how texts maintain, counteract, or promote alternative systemic power structures.

Abstract This article reports on the first two phases of a multiphase science education development project in predominantly Māori
kura (school communities) in the central region of the North Island of Aotearoa New Zealand. The development project in its
entirety employs an action research methodology and by so doing endeavors to support the improvement of science education
delivery in accordance with school community aspirations. The full project (a) establishes the current situation in Year 1–8
science education in the communities; (b) identifies developmental aspirations for stakeholders within the communities and
identifies potential contributors and constraints to these aspirations; (c) implements mechanisms for achieving identified
aspirations; and finally; (d) evaluates the effectiveness of such mechanisms. In its focus on the first two phases, this article
incorporates the analytical lenses of Kaupapa Māori Theory and Bronfenbrenner’s bio-ecological model. It concludes by outlining
some priorities to consider for science education development based on the outcomes of our preliminary discussions.

In his December editorial on Michael Reiss, Kenneth Tobin (Cult Stud Sci Educ 3:793–798, 2008), raises some very important questions for science and science teachers regarding science education and the teaching of creationism
in the classroom. I agree with him that students’ creationist ideologies should be treated not as misconceptions but as worldviews.
Because of creationism’s peculiarly strong political links though, I argue that such discussion must address three critical
and interconnected issues, including the uncertain state of teaching evolution in public schools nationally, the political
convergence of the creationist political beliefs with bigoted worldviews, and creationism’s inherent contrariness to science
and human progress. I suggest that we as science educators therefore not consider all sides to be equally right and to instead
take side against the politics of creationism. I also argue that we need much more serious discussion on how to better teach
science to students who hold creationist worldviews, and that science educators such as Reiss need to be part of that.

The motivation and methodology for measuring intelligence have changed repeatedly in the modern history of large-scale student
testing. Test makers have always sought to identify raw aptitude for cultivation, but they have never figured out how to promote
excellence while preserving equality. They’ve settled for egalitarianism, which gives rise to “culturally fair” tests that
substitute vagaries for knowledge, deprive students of any real appreciation for language, and trivialize education. Robert
Jackson yearns for traditional oratorical approaches to schooling that venerate and imitate essential, time-tested masters.
Unfortunately, he writes, such an education defies measurement with today’s multiple-choice instruments.

This article examines Mary Budd Rowe’s groundbreaking and far-reaching contributions to science education. Rowe is best known
for her research on wait-time: the idea that teachers can improve the quality and length of classroom discussions by waiting
at least 3 s before and after student responses. Her wait-time research grew from and helped inform her staunch advocacy of
science education as inquiry; Rowe saw wonder and excitement as central to the teaching and learning of science. She spent
much of her professional life designing professional development experiences and innovative curriculum materials to help teachers,
particularly elementary school teachers, enact inquiry in their classrooms.

This article presents a metalogue discussion about the two focus articles and the six associated review essays on the topic
of conceptual change as it applies to research, and science teaching and learning in museum settings. Through the lenses of
a sociocultural perspectives of learning we examine the applicability of the ideas presented in the forum for museums and
museum educators. First we reflect on the role that emotions can play in concept development; second, we reflect on the role
of language, talk, and gestures to concept development and conceptual change in the short-lived nature of experiences and
conversations in museums; and third, we consider the nature of objects as representations of science content in museum settings.

This metalogue addresses the ways Sreyashi Jhumki Basu mediated our practices in science education and life. We focus on Basu’s
uses of critical science agency, democratic science classrooms, and critical feminist ethnography to transform the possibilities
for all participants in her research and educational practices. We also examine her use of cases and pedagogical strategies
to support youth set practice goals based on conceptions of self and preferred learning trajectories. These strategies allow
youth to develop power through the use of disciplinary knowledge and modes of inquiry to support their understanding of themselves
as powerful, able to change their position in the world, and make the world more socially just. This (Key Contributors) article
acknowledges a life cut short through disease, reflects our personal loss of a friend and colleague, and expresses determination
to ensure that her contributions to science education are sustained and continued.

In this article I explore research in urban science education inspired by the work of Kris Gutierrez in a paper based on her
2005 Scribner Award. It addresses key points in Gutierrez’s work by exploring theoretical frameworks for research and approaches
to teaching and research that expand the discourse on the agency of urban youth in corporate school settings. The work serves
as an overview of under-discussed approaches and theoretical frameworks to consider in teaching and conducting research with
marginalized urban youth in urban science classrooms.

Research on teacher identities is both important and increasing. In this forum contribution I re-interpret assertions about
an African American science teacher’s identities in terms of Jonathon Turner’s (2002) constructs of role identity and sub-identity. I contest the notion of renegotiation of identities, suggesting that particular
role identities can be brought to the foreground and then backgrounded depending on the situation and the need to confirm
a sub-identity. Finally, I recommend the inclusion of teachers’ voices in identity research through greater use of co-authoring
roles for teachers.

This study reports a subset of findings from a larger, ongoing study aimed at exploring interactions between teacher identity,
learning, and classroom practices in a social justice teacher education program at a selective liberal arts college in New
York. This case-study explores the journey of Elena, as an immigrant, a student, and a pre-service teacher candidate towards
becoming a social justice educator. Elena reflects upon her school language experiences as an immigrant youth, her learning
in a social justice teacher education program, and her field experiences in an international high school. The analysis spans
macro-, meso-, and microlevels to explore the ways globalization, particularly immigration, as well as schooling policies
for English language learners interact with aspects of Elena’s core identity, particularly in school settings. The findings
show some of the ways language and literacy verified and/or denied aspects of Elena’s core identity; specific instances where
second language proficiency was cast as power and privilege versus disadvantage according to ethnic, language, and class categorizations;
and the struggles Elena, and other immigrant youth may face given the focus on English language acquisition and high stakes
accountability in schools, at the expense of students’ primary language proficiency and affirmation of core identity markers.

This survey study explored high school science teachers’ challenges and needs specific to their growing English language learning
(ELL) student population. Thirty-three science teachers from 6 English as a Second language (ESL)-center high schools in central
Virginia participated in the survey. Issues surveyed were (a) strategies used by science teachers to accommodate ELL students’
special needs, (b) challenges they experienced, and (c) support and training necessary for effective ELL instruction. Results
suggest that language barriers as well as ELL students’ lack of science foundational knowledge challenged teachers most. Teachers
perceived that appropriate instructional materials and pedagogical training was most needed. The findings have implications
for science teacher preservice and inservice education in regard to working with language minority students.

In this article I critically examine the historical context of science education in a natural history museum and its relevance
to using museum resources to teach science today. I begin with a discussion of the historical display of race and its relevance
to my practice of using the Museum’s resources to teach science. I continue with a critical review of the history of the education
department in a natural history museum to demonstrate the historical constitution of current practices of the education department.
Using sociocultural constructs around identity formation and transformation, I move to the present with a case study of a
teacher who transforms the structure of science education in her classroom and school as a result of her identity transformation
and association with a museum-based professional education program.

In this article I initially borrow a metaphor from an art exhibition, Ocean to Outback, as a way to express my perspective on the contribution that Léonie Rennie has made to science education in Australia. I
then consider Léonie’s contributions as overlapping themes. In particular, Léonie’s well-known research on gender and issues
of equity in science education is explored as well as her highly regarded work on learning science in out-of-school settings.
Curriculum integration is a less well-known aspect of Léonie’s research that also is considered. Léonie’s important contributions
to research training and policy in science education are briefly described and commented on. Finally, I return to the metaphor
of Ocean to Outback that reflects the enormity of the contribution that Léonie has made but also gives insight into her personal journey and
qualities.

This response draws from the literature on adaptive learning, traditional ecological knowledge, and social–ecological systems
to show that Brad’s choice is not a simple decision between traditional ecological knowledge and authentic science. This perspective
recognizes knowledge systems as dynamic, cultural and historical activities characterized by diverse worldviews and ways of
constructing and legitimizing knowledge. Brad’s decision is seen as an example of adaptive learning, identity development
and personal/collective agency oriented to increasing tribal influence in resource management decisions and policies. I will
conclude that science literacy for all is not served by a transcendent, universal, Western modern view of science.

Conflicting measures of state support for postsecondary education create confusion and misunderstanding that convolute debates
about states’ postsecondary education funding. The use of multiple measures is largely unnecessary, though. A simple single
measure is constructed that adequately quantifies both states’ postsecondary need and states’ ability to pay. Specifically,
this study proposes measuring state support for postsecondary education as state postsecondary funding per high school graduate
over the previous four years per dollar of per capita income.
