If Multicultural Science Education Standards Existed, What Would They Look Like?
Ferguson, Robert
Journal of Science Teacher Education, v19 n6 p547-564 Dec 2008
The intersection between science teacher education and multiculturalism has produced a considerable amount of research in the science education community. This paper suggests, according to current science teacher preparation literature, an initial set of multicultural science education standards for science methods course instructors of preservice teachers: dialogic conversation, authentic activities, reflexivity, ability, committed practice, and knowing. Included in the discussion of each standard is an activity or lesson that a science methods course instructor can implement.
