Science education at the upper secondary level presents an
extremely diverse image. In some education systems, it is possible
for students to abandon the discipline altogether; in others,
program specialization may involve students' being enrolled in
science-intensive tracks. In the latter case, the links between
secondary and higher science education tend to be strong,
especially for competitive-entry, science-based programs in
subjects such as engineering and biomedical sciences. In this
capacity, upper secondary science may be said to have created a new
academic elitism.
This edited volume adopts a comparative approach to upper secondary
science as it occurs in sixteen countries, focusing on such key
topics as links with basic science education, issues in assessment,
and the secondary/tertiary education interface. With contributions
from a wide cross-section of countries, including Australia,
Malaysia, Brazil, Nigeria, and Pakistan, Issues in Upper Secondary
Science Education provides an unparalleled resource for
understanding upper secondary science education systems around the
world.
