Description
This book is part of the book series Contributions from Science Education Research, published by Springer in partnership with the European Science Education Association (ESERA). It gathers a selection of papers presented at the 14th ESERA Conference under the theme Fostering scientific citizenship in an uncertain world. This conference, organised by the University of Minho, in Braga, Portugal, from 30 August to 3 September 2021, was held as an exclusively virtual conference due to the Coronavirus situation and travel restrictions at that time. This virtual modality brought together the international science education research community, which allowed sharing of research and engaging in discussion about the pressing issues in science education. Overall, 739 papers (out of which 32 were symposia) were presented at the Conference after passing a double-blind review process by two or three reviewers. The papers (single oral communications, interactive posters, workshops, symposia) were organised into 18 strands based on their topic. In addition, the Conference organisers invited five prominent researchers to give plenary talks.
