Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for Mathematics and Science Education: Cases and Perspectives
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are critical pillars for transforming mathematics and science education. As classrooms diversify, the need to address systemic barriers and create inclusive learning environments becomes more urgent. Cases on DEI in STEM education highlight the real-world challenges and strategies educators face in promoting equitable access to learning opportunities, dismantling biases, and empowering students from historically marginalized communities. Further exploration may reveal powerful teaching tools and catalyze reflective practice and institutional change, encouraging educators to critically examine their roles in shaping a more inclusive future in math and science. Cases on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for Mathematics and Science Education explores key issues and concepts related to diversity, equity, and inclusion in mathematics and science classrooms. It offers solutions and successful strategies for teaching and learning in mathematics and science. This book covers topics such as inclusive classrooms, K-12 education, pre-service teaching, and is a useful resource for educators, sociologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
The SAGE Handbook of Inclusion and Diversity in Education
This handbook examines policy and practice from around the world with respect to broadly conceived notions of inclusion and diversity within education. It sets out to provide a critical and comprehensive overview of current thinking and debate around aspects such as inclusive education rights, philosophy, context, policy, systems, and practices for a global audience. This makes it an ideal text for researchers and those involved in policy-making, as well as those teaching in classrooms today. Chapters are separated across three key parts: Part I: Conceptualizations and Possibilities of Inclusion and Diversity in Education Part II: Inclusion and Diversity in Educational Practices, Policies, and Systems Part III: Inclusion and Diversity in Global and Local Educational Contexts
A Framework for K-12 Science Education

Science, engineering, and technology permeate nearly every facet of modern life and hold the key to solving many of humanity's most pressing current and future challenges. The United States' position in the global economy is declining, in part because U.S. workers lack fundamental knowledge in these fields. To address the critical issues of U.S. competitiveness and to better prepare the workforce, A Framework for K-12 Science Education proposes a new approach to K-12 science education that will capture students' interest and provide them with the necessary foundational knowledge in the field. A Framework for K-12 Science Education outlines a broad set of expectations for students in science and engineering in grades K-12. These expectations will inform the development of new standards for K-12 science education and, subsequently, revisions to curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional development for educators. This book identifies three dimensions that convey the core ideas and practices around which science and engineering education in these grades should be built. These three dimensions are: crosscutting concepts that unify the study of science through their common application across science and engineering; scientific and engineering practices; and disciplinary core ideas in the physical sciences, life sciences, and earth and space sciences and for engineering, technology, and the applications of science. The overarching goal is for all high school graduates to have sufficient knowledge of science and engineering to engage in public discussions on science-related issues, be careful consumers of scientific and technical information, and enter the careers of their choice. A Framework for K-12 Science Education is the first step in a process that can inform state-level decisions and achieve a research-grounded basis for improving science instruction and learning across the country. The book will guide standards developers, teachers, curriculum designers, assessment developers, state and district science administrators, and educators who teach science in informal environments.
