Direct linkBradford, Allison; Gerard, Libby; Tate, Erika; Li, Rui; Linn, Marcia C. – Science Education, 2023
To promote a justice-oriented approach to science education, we formed a research-practice partnership between middle school science teachers, their students, curriculum designers, learning scientists, and experts in social justice to co-design and test an environmental justice unit for middle school instruction. We examine teacher perspectives on…

Herman, Benjamin C. – Science Education, 2015
The science education field readily recognizes that perceptions about science's claims and nature influence socioscientific decision making. However, sociocultural factors may overshadow these perceptions when people are forced to make personally impacting choices contextualized within actual socioscientific issues. This investigation…

Peer reviewedSteiner, Robert L. – Science Education, 1973
Reports the results of a study designed to determine the attitudes of Oregon high school seniors toward a number of environmentally-oriented and science-related social issues. Attitudinal comparisons are made between students with respect to the amount of science they had taken in high school (grades 10-12), their school environment, and their…
