How students form ideas about 'becoming a scientist'

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Understanding Young People's Science Aspirations offers new evidence and understanding about how young people develop their aspirations for education, learning and, ulitmately, careers in science. Integrating new findings from a major research study with a wide ranging review of existing international literature, it aims to bring a distinctive sociological analytic lens to the field of science education.

Set in the context of widespread international policy concern about the urgent need to improve, increase and diversify participation in post-16 science it considers how we encourage an adequate supply of appropriately qualified future scientists and workers in STEM industries; and ensure a high level of scientific literacy in society.
