| dc.description | Moving the Equity Agenda Forward presents current equity-related research, practice, and policy in science education and points to directions needed for future work. Its purpose is to inform critical discussion and transformative action to push us closer to the goal of a science education for all students: to help refine our methods for investigating equity; to deepen and broaden our understanding of the processes of science teaching and learning; to better address persistent inequities across science classrooms, schools, and policies; and to craft new initiatives to engage and instruct all students in science. This volume is not a review of literature. Moving the Equity Agenda Forward is officially endorsed by NARST. Indeed, this volume grew out of the efforts of an ad hoc committee constituted by the NARST Equity and Ethics Committee in 2007. The ad hoc committee was charged with examining the strengths and weaknesses of existing equity-related scholarship in science education. Through conversations, surveys, and self-reflection, members of this committee identified five key areas of research that have defined and must continue to shape the field: science education policy; globalization; context and culture; discourse, language, and identity; and leadership and social networking. In the now completed volume, scholars’ work is organized into these five key areas of research identified by the NARST ad hoc committee. Cutting across these five sections, or parts, are core questions regarding race, class, language, gender, and other socializing categories, as well as issues of power and positioning. These parts are introduced below. Science Education Policy. Authors critically examine both past and current policies in science education and discuss how they support or constrain efforts to achieve equity | - |
