Indigenous STEM Education - Perspectives from the Pacific Islands, the Americas and Asia, Volume 1 (1st ed. 2023): Pauline W.... Indigenous STEM Education - Perspectives from the Pacific Islands, the Americas and Asia, Volume 1 (1st ed. 2023)
Pauline W. U. Chinn, Sharon Nelson-Barber
R4,233 Discovery Miles 42 330 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book explores ways in which systems of local knowledge, culture, language, and place are foundational for STEM learning in Indigenous communities. It is part of a two-volume set that addresses a growing recognition that interdisciplinary, cross-cultural and cross-hybrid learning is needed to foster scientific and cultural understandings and move STEM learning toward more just and sustainable futures for all learners.  Themes of learning from elders, through practice and place-based experiences are found across cultures. Each chapter brings a uniquely Indigenous point of view to the educational transformation efforts taking place in these distinct contexts.  In the second section the chapters use authentic research stories to explain many ways in which regular disciplinary policies and practices can impact Indigenous students’ participation in STEM classrooms and careers. These authors go on to discuss ways to engage learners in STEM activities that are interconnected with the contexts of their lives.

Indigenous STEM Education - Perspectives from the Pacific Islands, the Americas and Asia, Volume 2 (1st ed. 2023): Pauline W.... Indigenous STEM Education - Perspectives from the Pacific Islands, the Americas and Asia, Volume 2 (1st ed. 2023)

R4,226 Discovery Miles 42 260 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book builds upon the range of Indigenous theory and research found in Volume I and applies these learnings to interventions in schools, communities, teacher education and professional development. It is part of a two-volume set addresses a growing recognition that interdisciplinary, cross-cultural and cross-hybrid learning is needed to foster scientific and cultural understandings and move STEM learning toward more just and sustainable futures for all learners.  Authors working in Eurocentric settings of schools and colleges—whether in the continental or island United States, Canada, Thailand, Taiwan or Chuuk—utilize storytelling, place, language and experiential learning to engage students in meaningful, highly contextualized study that honors ancestral knowledge and practices. They recognize that their disciplines have been structured and colonized by Eurocentric/American frameworks that lack storied, ethical contexts developed through living sustainably in particular places. Recognizing that students seeking to enter STEM majors and careers now must be knowledgeable in multiple ways, authors describe innovative ways to immerse precollege learners as well as developing and practicing teachers in settings that intersect culture, place, heritage language, and praxis that enable Indigenous and local knowledge to become central to learning. Twenty-first century technologies of distance learning, digital story-telling, and mapping technologies now enable formerly marginalized, minoritized groups to share their worldviews and systems of knowledge.

Culturally Responsive Mathematics Education (Paperback): Brian Greer, Swapna Mukhopadhyay, Arthur B. Powell, Sharon... Culturally Responsive Mathematics Education (Paperback)
Brian Greer, Swapna Mukhopadhyay, Arthur B. Powell, Sharon Nelson-Barber
R2,510 Discovery Miles 25 100 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

At a time of rapid demographic change and amidst the many educational challenges facing the US, this critical new collection presents mathematics education from a culturally responsive perspective. It tackles the most crucial issues of teaching mathematics to an ethnically diverse school population, including the political dimension of mathematics education within the context of governmental efforts to improve achievement in school mathematics. Culturally Responsive Mathematics Education moves beyond a point of view that is internal to mathematics education as a discipline, and instead offers a broad perspective of mathematics as a significant, liberating intellectual force in our society. The editors of this volume bring together contributions from many of the leading teachers, teacher educators, researchers, scholars, and activists who have been working to reorient mathematics education in ways that reflect mathematics education as accomplished, first and foremost, through human interactions.
