In this forum paper, I respond to issues raised by Kristina Andersson and Annica Gullberg in their article titled What is science in preschool and what do teachers have to know to empower children? (2012). I seek to continue the discussion begun with Andersson and Gullberg’s paper, by further exploring the questions they introduce to guide their paper: “What is science in preschool?” and “What do teachers have to know to empower children?” In particular, I elaborate on the value of drawing on multiple perspectives and different epistemological frameworks, and I argue for the need for a reconceptualized notion of science as a school discipline; one that acknowledges the multifaceted ways in which young children engage in science. 相似文献

Past studies have explored the role of student science notebooks in supporting students' developing science understandings. Yet scant research has investigated science notebook use with students who are learning science in a language they are working to master. To explore how student science notebook use is co-constructed in interaction among students and teachers, this study examined plurilingual students' interactions with open-ended science notebooks during an inquiry science unit on condensation and evaporation. Grounded in theoretical views of the notebook as a semiotic social space, multimodal interaction analysis facilitated examination of the ways students drew upon the space afforded by the notebook as they constructed explanations of their understandings. Cross-group comparison of three focal groups led to multiple assertions regarding the use of science notebooks with plurilingual students. First, the notebook supported student-determined paths of resemiotization as students employed multiple communicative resources to express science understandings. Second, notebooks provided spaces for students to draw upon diverse language resources and as a bridge in time across multiple inquiry sessions. Third, representations in notebooks were leveraged by both students and teachers to access and deepen conceptual conversations. Lastly, students' interactions over time revealed multiple epistemological orientations in students' use of the notebook space. These findings point to the benefits of open-ended science notebooks use with plurilingual students, and a consideration of the ways they are used in interaction in science instruction. 相似文献

Creating Participatory Discourse for Teaching and Research in Early Childhood Science 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
This paper presents the results of a study conducted with second grade students and pre-service teachers. This study examined
the possibilities for engaging children in critical discourse about their classroom science experiences. At the heart of this
discussion lies the desire to provide a space for teachers and children to develop relationships and to explore the learning
of science together. Themes that emerged include: (1) on-going, focused, critical dialogue between children and teachers supported
children in developing agency in the classroom, and (2) on-going conversations created the opportunity for children to reveal
their ways of knowing and developing interpretations of the practice of science. 相似文献

This review essay adds to the conversation to which Allison Skerrett and Hannah Sevian contribute in their article, Identity and biography as mediators of science and mathematics faculty’s involvement in K-12 service. Here we address the need to reconceptualize faculty service in public schools and traditional notions of scholarship. We
discuss the importance of transforming university structures that envision service as less important than “scholarship” and
“teaching” while mediating hierarchical ideas of what “service” entails. We share a dialectical view of social life and an
ethical stance that values polysemy and polyphony both in research and in our daily interactions. Here we employ a dialectical
lens that seeks multiple perspectives as we engage in a dialogue about these issues. 相似文献

This study examines young children’s ideas about natural science phenomena and explores possibilities in starting investigations
in kindergarten from their ideas. Given the possibilities inherent in how young children make sense of their experiences,
we believe it is critical to take children’s perspectives into consideration when designing any activities, and ideally, to
design activities from their perspectives and understandings. Specifically, this research focuses on 5- and 6-year old children’s explanations of
rainbows, and there are three main findings. First, our analysis demonstrates that opportunities to discuss their ideas revealed
children’s different perceptions of the phenomena of rainbows. Secondly, this research emphasizes that peer-to-peer interaction
in the co-construction of science concepts provided support to the children to learn from, and with, each other. Third, children’s initial explanations provided the teacher-researcher (second author) with a starting point
to scaffold her teaching from. Although rainbows are quite an abstract topic to try to reproduce in the classroom, the children
demonstrated their often sophisticated understandings of natural science phenomena, as well as their creative ideas as related
to rainbows. In order to foster an appreciation of themes in natural science, it is crucial to build from what children already
know and can do, and to use these emergent theories and considerations in designing curriculum. Thus, we draw implications
for the importance of teaching science at the early childhood level and for using children’s ideas as starting points in planning
instruction. 相似文献

We review Key Works in Critical Pedagogy: Joe L. Kincheloe edited by kecia hayes, Shirley R. Steinberg and Kenneth Tobin, which gathers the seminal works of Joe. L. Kincheloe and pairs
them with contemporary scholars who respond to and push forward Kincheloe’s work. The chapters of Key Works in Critical Pedagogy are arranged to begin with Kincheloe’s earlier works, going back to 1991, and progress through to the last works he published
before his death in 2008. Through this format, readers are able to see the evolution of Kincheloe’s scholarship. In addition
to this, a few key authors provide a behind the scenes look at the man who wrote the texts. As Kincheloe’s ideas and the ideas
of the scholars that he drew from are presented, applied, reworked and reconfigured, they shift and transform. The response
chapters work to (in effect) show us the notes in the margins of scholars who have been influenced by Kincheloe’s ideas. Using
the metaphors of lamps and wish-granting genies, we argue that this book is an important tool in illuminating the way forward
for social justice work, published in an historical moment that requires precisely this. 相似文献

Trevor Owens’ paper provides a critique of the role of gender and authority in selected children’s books that presented biographies
of Albert Einstein and Marie Curie. In the context of discussing Trevor’s (2009) article about children’s literature, this
forum explores issues related to the (a) representation and construction of gender, science, and childhood in literature for
children; (b) the need to consider socio/historical/cultural contexts in analytical and theoretical frameworks; and (c) the
importance of fostering critical literacy perspectives in pre- and in-service science teachers and the children whom they
teach. 相似文献
