This book discusses a number of ways in which out-of-school science
education can uniquely engage learners with 'wicked' global
problems such as biodiversity loss and climate change. The idea for
the volume originated in discussions among members of the ESERA
special interest group on "Science Education in Out-of-School
contexts". It emerged from these discussions that out-of-school
institutions and experiences offer opportunities for critical
engagement in wicked problems that go far beyond what is possible
solely in the science classroom. The book opens with a principled
discussion of the nature of wicked problems and what addressing
them involves. This introduction clarifies key terms and ideas to
create a coherent backdrop for the rest of the book. Subsequent
chapters discuss the challenges of designing educational
experiences to address wicked problems, as well as the teaching and
learning that takes place. The authors offer perspectives across a
range of out-of-school environments such as science centres,
natural history museums, botanical gardens, geological sites, and
local communities. The book concludes with a chapter that
synthesises the findings from the various contributions and points
to the messages for educators. Finally, the editors outline an
exciting research agenda to build knowledge of education addressing
wicked problems. The intended audience of the book includes
teachers, educators/facilitators, teacher educators, curriculum
developers, and early career researchers as well as established
researchers.
Since the world fell sick with fantastical illnesses, sisters
Payton and Ani have grown up in the hospital of King Jude's. Payton
wants to be a methic like her father, working on a cure for her
mother's sleeping fever. Ani, however, thinks the remedy for all
illness might be found in the green wilderness beyond the hospital
walls. When Ani stumbles upon an imprisoned boy who turns
everything he touches to gold, her world is turned upside-down. The
girls find themselves outside the hospital for the first time, a
dark mystery unravelling ... The first teen novel from Angharad
Walker, author of critically-acclaimed The Ash House Angharad's
writing evokes the clever, unique world-building and philosophical
themes of Pullman's His Dark Materials while remaining startlingly
original The story follows two sisters in a London-inspired city
full of fantastical illness and sprawling, gothic hospitals where
dark secrets linger beneath the surface Praise for THE ASH HOUSE:
'An unexpected - and pleasing - combination of propitious and
disquieting.' KIRKUS REVIEWS 'Walker's immersive story slowly
reveals its secrets, using tension as a lever to tip the reader
deep into the Ash House's mysteries.' PUBLISHERS WEEKLY 'The book
has allegorical chill that settles slowly, like damp seeping in . .
. leaving readers with a feeling of ambiguous unease that may stir
for a long time in the back of their minds like the after-effects
of a nightmare.' THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

This edited volume presents the current state of the art of
genetics education and the challenges it holds for teaching as well
as for learning. It addresses topics such as how genetics should be
taught in order to provide students with a wide and connected view
of the field. It gives in-depth aspects that should be considered
for teaching genetics and the effect on the student's
understanding. This book provides novel ideas for biology teachers,
curriculum developers and researchers on how to confront the
presented challenges in a way that may enable them to advance
genetics education in the 21st century. It reviews the complexity
of teaching and learning genetics, largely overlooked by biology
textbooks and classroom instruction. It composes a crucial
component of scientific literacy.
