Middle grades science teachers need professional support in practice as they implement new inquiry-based science. Professional
development schools can provide this bottom-up support through connecting preservice and inservice teacher education programs
in classroom practice. In this study, coteaching arrangements with secondary science education majors provided additional
teachers in the classroom to support a materials-rich curriculum and the needed associated pedagogies. Science education majors
provided needed assistance in troubleshooting difficulties with the new curriculum. They also provided needed content knowledge
to support inquiry, along with creating moments and space for teachers to reflect on inquiry practice. Ongoing assistance
by preservice teachers allowed inservice teachers to progress from logistical concerns in implementing kit curriculum to concerns
regarding student learning and the supporting professional development.

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.

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.

This article highlights the transformative contributions of Mary Monroe Atwater to the field of science education. Influenced
by worldviews shaped by a segregated macro-society and the privileges of a micro-society, Mary stood against oppression in
the early years of her academic career by desegregating academic settings and being the first and only African American in
varied arenas for many years. As an aspiring academic, Mary challenged dominant paradigms and as an activist academic, she
changed the landscape of science education. She broadened the knowledge base through scholarship and praxis and diversified
the science education community through personal and professional efforts that were pioneering in nature.
Eileen Carlton Parsons is an assistant professor at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The contexts in which the science teaching and learning of African Americans occur constitute the core of her research interests. She examines the educative process with respect to culture and race. 相似文献

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.

Language in Science Education as a Gatekeeper to Learning,Teaching, and Professional Development 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Felicia M. Moore 《Journal of Science Teacher Education》2007,18(2):319-343
In this study, I used a feminist poststructural perspective to explain how language is a gatekeeper in learning science, in
achieving professional honors in teaching science, and in teaching science to English language learners. The various uses
of language revealed interesting dynamics related to the culture of power of language and the culture of power of science
along race–ethnicity, gender, and class dimensions for teachers. Teachers did not necessarily see language as having distinct
purposes and uses. This further maintained the gatekeeping nature of language and discourse in science education. I discuss
implications for looking at language in science education for teacher professional development and student learning.

More than a conversation: using cogenerative dialogues in the professional development of high school chemistry teachers 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sonya N. Martin Kathryn Scantlebury 《Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability》2009,21(2):119-136
This paper focuses on content-based and pedagogical instructors’ use of cogenerative dialogues to improve instructional practice
and to evaluate program effectiveness in a professional development program for high school chemistry teachers. We share our
research findings from using cogenerative dialogues as an evaluative tool for general assessment of various program-related
issues. We discuss how engaging students in cogenerative dialogues improved teaching and learning in chemistry and chemistry
education courses. This research provides insights and direction for improving content-based professional development programs
for science teachers and the learning experiences of high school science students. Cogenerative dialogue has the potential
to expand evaluation methodologies that will position participants more centrally in not only the collection of data, but
also the analysis of these data to catalyze transformative practices in educational programs.

Since many teachers and students recognize other kinds of knowledge (faith) based on other ways of knowing, consideration
of these realities is appropriate for the science education community. Understanding the multitude of ways that clergy view
relationships between science and faith (i.e. alternative ways of knowing) would assist in understanding various ways that
people address complex issues arising from ideas about science and faith. We administered a questionnaire composed of multiple-choice
and short answer items to 63 United Methodist ministers. Findings included (1) that formal, organized faith contexts (e.g.
church services) serve as informal science education opportunities, (2) participants demonstrated considerable diversity regarding
the types of relationships developed between science and faith, and (3) participants recognized a need exists for better understandings
of science and its relationship to faith for them, their colleagues, and their congregations.

The article explores the role of immigrant parents in middle school science as both teachers and learners as part of an urban
middle school curriculum, the Linking in Food and the Environment (LiFE) program. The curriculum engaged parents as partners
with science teachers to teach science through food. Over a 2-year period, parents attended a series of bilingual workshops,
collaborated with classroom teachers, managed activities, guided student inquiry, and assisted in classroom management. The
following study analyzes the role of culture, language, and identity as four mothers navigated their position as ‘insiders’
in a science classroom.

This study describes how teachers use their personal knowledge of a school district and their students to cope with teaching
under stressful situations associated with economic, social, and institutional factors. The 3 teachers dealt with these issues
in unique ways, focusing on helping students to overcome negative perceptions, value the importance of an education, and build
strong relationships. A model of multicultural science professional development is proposed that complements the strengths
that these teachers have. A task for science educators working with teachers and administration in schools and districts that
are “critically low performing” is to support everyone in implementing pedagogical methods aimed at empowerment, social justice,
and high achievement for all students.

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.

Professional development is critical in supporting teachers’ use of technological tools in classrooms. This review of empirical
research synthesizes the effective elements of professional development programs that support science teachers in learning
about technology integration. Studies are examined that explore how professional development supports technology use within
inquiry-based and traditional science instruction. Implications for future research are discussed in four areas: understanding
and building on teachers’ beliefs about science and technology; supporting teacher learning by supporting teachers’ examination
of students’ work; using technology to support teacher communities and social networks; and sustaining teachers’ learning
beyond formal professional development programs.

Preservice teachers in a K–8 science methods course used guided video reflection to examine their interactions with children
during science teaching. This inquiry approach helped preservice teachers identify and respond to gaps between their beliefs
and intentions about teaching all children and their enactment of those beliefs. The experience of teaching a science lesson
and then viewing it multiple times through a critical framework provided an opportunity for preservice teachers to recognize
hidden assumptions, unexamined behaviors, and the unintentional meanings they may have conveyed to children. This encouraged
them to think more critically about their roles as teachers in creating spaces where all children have access to quality science
learning experiences.

This article reviews significant contributions made by Joe L. Kincheloe to critical research in science education, especially
through a multimethodological, multitheoretical, and multidisciplinary informed lens that incorporates social, cultural, political,
economic, and cognitive dynamics—the bricolage. Kincheloe’s ideas provide for a compelling understanding of, and insights
into, the forces that shape the intricacies of teaching and learning science and science education. They have implications
in improving science education policies, in developing actions that challenge and cultivate the intellect while operating
in ways that are more understanding of difference and are socially just.
Gillian U. Bayne is an assistant professor of science education at Lehman College, City University of New York. Having also completed a master’s degree in secondary science education at New York University, she has taught science both in New York City’s public school system and in independent schools for over 10 years. Gillian’s research interests are focused on the utilization of cogenerative dialogues with high school and college students, their teachers and other stakeholders to improve science teaching and learning. 相似文献

Developing Science Pedagogical Content Knowledge Through Mentoring Elementary Teachers 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ken Appleton 《Journal of Science Teacher Education》2008,19(6):523-545
Elementary teachers are typically hesitant to teach science. While a limited knowledge of science content is a reason for
this, limited science pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) has emerged as another reason in recent research. This study constitutes
two case studies of a professional development program for elementary teachers involving mentoring by a university professor.
The mentor took the role of a critical friend in joint planning and teaching of science. The study examines the nature of
the mentoring relationship and reports the type of teacher learning that occurred, with a particular focus on the teachers’
development of science PCK.

Interdisciplinary work within higher education has increased significantly over past decades (Amey 2004; Creamer and Lattuca
2005). However, the professional implications of interdisciplinary research and instruction for the faculty members who engage
in such academic work remain unclear. This study of science educators who hold appointments in two academic departments begins
to address this empirical gap. The outcomes provide insight into the factors that influence the professional lives of these
faculty members. The knowledge gained from the study will provide mentors, colleagues, and administrators insight into the
challenges facing academics undertaking this work. Further, this research seeks to inform policy makers in regard to how tenure
and promotion is determined for jointly appointed faculty in science education and other interdisciplinary fields.

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.

In this case study, we examine a teacher’s journey, including reflections on teaching science, everyday classroom interaction,
and their intertwined relationship. The teacher’s reflections include an awareness of being “a White middle-class born and
raised teacher teaching other peoples’ children.” This awareness was enacted in the science classroom and emerges through
approaches to inquiry. Our interest in Ms. Cook’s journey grew out of discussions, including both informal and semi-structured interviews, in two
research projects over a three-year period. Our interest was further piqued as we analyzed videotaped classroom interaction
during science lessons and discovered connections between Ms. Cook’s reflections and classroom interaction. In this article,
we illustrate ways that her journey emerges as a conscientization. This, at least in part, shapes classroom interaction, which
then again shapes her conscientization in a recursive, dynamic relationship. We examine her reflections on her “hegemonic
(cultural and socio–economic) practices” and consider how these reflections help her reconsider such practices through analysis
of classroom interaction. Analyses lead us to considering the importance of inquiry within this classroom community.
