Revolutionary STEM Education: Critical-Reality Pedagogy and Social
Justice in STEM for Black Males by Jeremiah J. Sims, an educator,
researcher, and administrator from Richmond, California, is calling
for a revolutionary, paradigm shift in the STEM education of and
for Black boys. STEM education has been reliant on axioms and
purported facts that for far too long have been delivered in a
banking or absorption model that is, arguably, anti-critical.
Unsurprisingly, this pedagogical approach to STEM education has
failed large segments of students; and, this is especially true of
African American males. Revolutionary STEM Education highlights,
chronicles, and investigates the potential inroads and vistas of a
Saturday Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) program,
Male Aptitudes Nurtured for Unlimited Potential (MAN UP), which was
designed to foster interest and competence in STEM by middle school
Black boys. This program was impelled by a critical-reality based
pedagogical approach, which was formulated to arrive at
socio-academic synergy, that is, a thoughtful conjoining of
students' real life concerns, joys, ways of being, and
socio-cultural identities and the curricular material covered in
the courses offered at MAN UP. Sims' lived-experiences as an
inner-city, low-income Black male are interspersed throughout
Revolutionary STEM Education; however, the heartbeat of this book
is, undoubtedly, the stories of the positive transformation that
the MAN UP scholars experienced while becoming more competent in
STEM, developing positive STEM identities, and learning to use
their STEM knowledge for social justice.
