This engaging and practical book offers science teacher educators and K-12 science teachers alike the tools to engage in a dialogic mode of collaborative action research (D-CAR), a collaborative mode of action research focused on teachers’ experiences with students, reflection upon these experiences, and peer learning.Renowned science educator Allan Feldman and co-authors from across numerous settings in K-12 science education present the theory, methodology, case studies, and practical advice to support the use of D-CAR as a means to enhance teachers’ normal practice and address the problems, dilemmas, and dissonances that science teachers must negotiate as they work to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse student population and engage with complex science teaching challenges that disproportionately affect marginalized students.The book will be of use to science teacher educators, pre-service and in-service science teachers, professional development specialists, or any science educator invested in developing creative, reflective, and thoughtful teachers.

This resource offers science teachers and science teacher educators strategies for tackling "wicked problems" in their classrooms. Contributors from across diverse PreK-12 educational contexts share how they confront and address these complex scientific or social problems. Chapters are organized into four sections: PreK-12 students, teacher candidates, in-service teachers, and teacher educators. Within each, science educators discuss how they have dealt with both systemic and non-straightforward wicked problems, such as climate change, social justice, ecojustice/climate justice, white privilege, political attacks on education, economic disparity, and other socioscientific issues. Chapters also include case studies that demonstrate how teachers broach wicked problems with their students. Ideal for science educators at all levels, this book can be a great supplement to any methods course covering science topics, or useful for professional development for in-service teachers who desire to learn more about how to attend to, maneuver, and grapple with teaching controversial or complex science topics. The Editors and Contributors cultivate and encourage important conversation around complex scientific problems that will inspire educators to address and navigate the complexities of wicked problems in their teaching practices.

Now in its third edition, Teachers Investigate Their Work introduces both the theoretical concepts and the practical methods necessary for readers wishing to develop their action research.Drawing from studies carried out by teachers and other professionals, as well as from the authors’ own international practical experience, the book provides detail on multiple educational contexts from primary education to university training and beyond. It contains over 50 practical methods and strategies to put into action, and explores key areas, such as: the purpose, roots, and varieties of action research collaborating with a critical friend, research participants, or your peers choosing a data collection method observing and documenting situations making sense of your data action research for professional development.This key text also provides crucial tools, such as: a simple ‘quick start’ nine step guide a toolbox for producing written reports a criteria for guiding the quality of action research.A concise yet thorough introduction to action research, Teachers Investigate Their Work is an essential, practical, and easily accessible handbook for teachers, senior staff, and researchers who want to engage in innovation and improve their practice.

This volume contains a unique compilation of research and reflections representing multiple vantage points stemming from different parts of the world that can help science educators and teacher educators in finding ways to meaningfully and purposefully embed sustainability into teaching and learning. It is a rich resource for exploring and contextualizing sustainability-oriented science education. At this time we find ourselves in a situation in which the earth’s ecological system is under significant strain as a result of human activity. In the developed world people are asking “How can we maintain our current standard of living?” while those in the developing world are asking “How can we increase the quality of our lives?” all while trying to do what is necessary to mitigate the environmental problems. This volume responds to these questions with a focus on educating for sustainability, including historical and philosophical analyses, and pedagogical and practical applications in the context of science teacher preparation. Included are many examples of ways to educate science teachers for sustainability from authors across the globe. This text argues that issues of sustainability are increasingly important to our natural world, built world, national and international economics and of course the political world. The ideas presented in the book provide examples for original, effective and necessary changes for envisioning educating science teachers for sustainability that will inform policy makers.
