Direct linkHubbard, Amelia R.; Monnig, Laurel A. – Science & Education, 2020
Exposure to information about genetics is at an all-time high, while a full understanding of the biocultural complexity of human difference is low. This paper demonstrates the value of an "anthropological approach" to enhance genetics education in biology, anthropology, and other related disciplines, when teaching about human differences…

W.; Buck Bracey, Zoë E.; Deutch Noll, Jamie; Kowalski, Susan M.; Novak, Dawn; Lo, Abraham S.; Landel, Carolyn; Krumm, Andrew; Penuel, William R.; Van Horne, Katie; González-Howard, María; Suárez, Enrique – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
OpenSciEd is an ambitious effort to implement the vision of the "Framework for K-12 Science Education" and the "Next Generation Science Standards" broadly across the United States. The premise of OpenSciEd is that high quality instructional materials can play a critical role in transforming science teaching and learning at a…

Shotwell, Mark – American Biology Teacher, 2019
Biology teachers consider basic Mendelian genetics to be value-free, objective science, immune to misinterpretation and misuse. It may thus come as a surprise to learn that in the early days of genetics a cornerstone of genetics education, the dihybrid cross, was employed to support claims of the racial superiority of whites over blacks and to…

In this manuscript, three science educators describe strategies used to effectively communicate about religiously and culturally sensitive science content and share lessons learned from their experiences. Mark A. Bloom (2019-2021 Fellow) describes the challenges he overcame in teaching climate change science at an evangelical university by…

Stewart, Georgina – New Zealand Journal of Teachers' Work, 2017
This article is written for school teachers in Aotearoa New Zealand schools who teach science to Year 7-10 students or as part of a primary classroom programme under The New Zealand Curriculum. What can teachers do about inequity in science education for Maori students? Clear understanding of this complex issue is required, so this article offers…

Gao, Niu – Public Policy Institute of California, 2021
This is the technical appendix for the report, "Does Raising High School Graduation Requirements Improve Student Outcomes?" While high school graduation rates in California have increased in the past decade, nearly 40 percent of California high school graduates do not enroll in college; the disruptive impact of the pandemic has…

White, Susan C. – Physics Teacher, 2015
We noted last month that Hispanic and African-American seniors were less likely to have taken a high school physics course than their peers, and we suggested that socioeconomic status (SES) played a role in the lower participation. Often the proportion of students receiving free and reduced-price meals (FRMs) is used as a measure of SES in…

White, Susan C. – Physics Teacher, 2015
In the May 2014 issue of "The Physics Teacher (TPT)," we reported that 39% of high school seniors in the 2013 class took at least one high school physics course prior to graduation. (See "TPT" 52 n5, 276-277.) This month we take a closer look at participation in high school physics by racial/ethnic group. As we see below, Asian…

Sanchez Fowler, Laura T. – Online Submission, 2012
The National Wildlife Federation's Schoolyard Habitat (SYH) program was a partnership with AISD from 2010-2012. A total of 18 outdoor learning habitats were created on AISD elementary and middle school campuses, and a demonstration habitat was created at the AISD Science and Health Resource Center (SHRC). The purpose of the SYHs is to provide…

Physics Teacher, 2011
In the September issue, we saw that a lower proportion of Hispanics and blacks take physics in U.S. high schools than do whites and Asians. Last month, we examined physics offerings and students by socioeconomic profile of the high school as reported by the principal. We saw that there were more physics classes and more physics students at…

Parsons, Eileen R. Carlton; Rhodes, Billye; Brown, Corliss – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2011
In this forum, we summarize CRT's origins, tenets common to most CRT writings, and CRT's evolution. We discuss Yerrick's article "Negotiating White Science" with respect to certain CRT premises. Specifically, we use the CRT tenet of racism as emphasized in first- and second-generation CRT and CRT elements liberal racial ideology and voices of…
