SCIENCE and CIVIC HEALTH

The Science of Citizenship. What’s at stake when schools skimp on science? by Belle Boggs. Published in the November/December 2013 issue of Orion magazine.

Science education is the cornerstone of cultural literacy, Belle Boggs argues. Yet in the U.S., students are woefully uneducated in science, and unprepared for the present and future challenges of climate change.

Read "The Science of Citizenship" to explore what the ideal science classroom looks like and what some schools are doing to improve science education--and our future.
