This book focuses on the creative and transformative work of
scholars who are advancing social justice through science/STEM
education with limited resources. It draws attention to the
significant body of work being conducted in various contexts so
that readers could reflect and appreciate how much broader and
transformative our impact could be if funding agencies, policy
makers, and other researchers would widen their perspective and
seek to promote social justice-driven scholarship. Public funding
for STEM research on K-12 and teacher education that targets
special populations is often limited and tends to favor mainstream
research. This book contains case studies on innovative and
promising STEM research with a focus on equity, diversity and
social justice that are funded with limited or no public funding.
It also presents anecdotes from authors in relation to their
struggles in either securing funding for their reported study or
seeking to publish its findings. This provides more context to the
challenges of conducting non-mainstream research in science/STEM
education. Most of the contributors are scholars of color and/or
women conducting research with traditionally marginalized
populations in science/STEM. Thus, this book offers an additional
venue to share the voices of marginalized scholars and allies
seeking to broaden our understanding of the challenges and
successes of promoting equity, diversity, and social justice in
various educational contexts.
