With unique insights into the potential power of Japan’s STEM education, Isozaki and his team of contributors share multiple perspectives on STEM education theory and practices in Japan.
Examining how Japan has become an economic superpower based on scientific and technological innovations, this book provides a particular focus on the theoretical and practical analysis of STEM education from historical and comparative perspectives. Additionally, it links the theory and practice of STEM education from primary education to teacher education at universities across Japan and considers both societal and individual needs in advancing STEM literacy. Chapters are written by researchers from a diverse range of fields in education, including science, mathematics, technology, and pedagogy. The book also offers practical teaching tools and materials for teacher education and assessment to promote STEM literacy in students so that they are able to address local and global socio-scientific issues in a real-world context.
Covering a wide spectrum of STEM education, this book provides valuable insights and practical suggestions, from a Japanese perspective, for academic researchers, policymakers, and educators who are interested in STEM education.
Tetsuo Isozaki is a professor of Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences at Hiroshima University, Japan.
