Science Education: A Global Perspective is 'global' both in content
and authorship. Its 17 chapters by an assemblage of seasoned and
knowledgeable science educators from many parts of the world seek
to bring to the fore current developments in science education and
their implications. The book thus covers a wide range of topics in
science education from various national and international
perspectives. These include the nature of science, science and
religion, evolution, curriculum and pedagogy, context-based
teaching and learning, science and national development,
socially-responsible science education, equitable access for women
and girls in science and technology education, and the benefits of
science education research. It ends on an optimistic note by
looking at science education in 50 years' time with a
recommendation, among others, for stakeholders to take the
responsibility of preparing children towards a blossoming science
education sector in an anticipated future world. This book is
suitable for use by discerning researchers, teachers, undergraduate
and postgraduate students in science education, and policy makers
at all levels of education. Other educationalists and personnel in
science and technology vocations will also find it interesting and
useful as the reader-motivated approach has guided the presentation
of ideas. Science Education: A Global Perspective is a rich
compendium of the components of science education in context,
practice, and delivery. Dr Bulent Cavas, Professor of Science
