This book encapsulates the vision of Singapore science educators to
bring the local elements of the country to bear in the science
curriculum. In experimenting with familiar materials used and
consumed in our everyday lives, and applying scientific knowledge
to analyse and provide explanations of the observed phenomena the
editors and contributing authors hope to introduce culturally
relevant science activities for enactment in the formal and
informal science curriculum. This work is premised on the
collective belief that learning science in culturally relevant ways
underscores the importance of one's culture embodied with funds of
knowledge to make the learning of science meaningful. They see this
as a step toward achieving the broader and long-term goal of
developing a scientifically literate citizenry.
