Critical Issues and Bold Visions for Science Education contains 16
chapters written by 32 authors from 11 countries. The book is
intended for a broad audience of teachers, teacher educators,
researchers, and policymakers. Interesting perspectives,
challenging problems, and fresh solutions grounded in cutting edge
theory and research are presented, interrogated, elaborated and,
while retaining complexity, offer transformative visions within a
context of political tensions, historical legacies, and grand
challenges associated with Anthropocene (e.g., sustainability,
climate change, mass extinctions). Within overarching sociocultural
frameworks, authors address diverse critical issues using rich
theoretical frameworks and methodologies suited to research today
and a necessity to make a difference while ensuring that all
participants benefit from research and high standards of ethical
conduct. The focus of education is broad, encompassing teaching,
learning and curriculum in pre-k-12 schools, museums and other
informal institutions, community gardens, and cheeseworld. Teaching
and learning are considered for a wide range of ages, languages,
and nationalities. An important stance that permeates the book is
that research is an activity from which all participants learn,
benefit, and transform personal and community practices.
Transformation is an integral part of research in science
education. Contributors are: Jennifer Adams, Arnau Amat, Lucy
Avraamidou, Marcilia Elis Barcellos, Alberto Bellocchi, Mitch
Bleier, Lynn A. Bryan, Helen Douglass, Colin Hennessy Elliott,
