Democratic science pedagogy has the potential to shape learning
outcomes and science engagement by taking on directly issues of
pedagogy, learning, and social justice. In this text we provide a
framework for democratic science teaching in order to interrogate
the purposes and goals of science education in classrooms globally,
as well as to call attention to ways of being in the classroom that
position teachers and students as important and powerful
participants in their own learning and as change-agents of a larger
global society. We develop three core conceptual tools for
democratic science teaching, that together frame ways of thinking
and being in classrooms that work towards a more just world: Voice,
Authority, and Critical Science Literacy. Each conceptual tool is
developed in the introductory chapters then taken up in different
pedagogical and analytic ways in the chapters that span the text.
The chapters present researcher, teacher, and student centered
lenses for investigating democratic science education and reflect
elementary through high school education, both in school and out of
school, in the US and globally.
