How might science education reflect the values of a socially just
and democratic society? How do urban youth living in poverty
construct science in their lives in ways that are enriching,
empowering, and transformative? Using a combination of in-depth
case studies and rigorous theory, this volume: Offers a series of
teaching stories that describes youth's practices of science,
providing valuable insight to help teachers work with inner-city
youth. Explores the importance of inclusiveness, membership rules,
and the purposes and goals of good science, including utility,
pragmatism, and doing good for others. Shows how science connects
to the lives of youth both in and out of school. Builds on and
critiques current reform initiatives in science education. Features
stories taken from six years of teaching and research in
after-school science programs with children and youth in homeless
shelters. Illustrates how the children's unique situations framed
their constructions of science in compelling and challenging ways.
