Scientific Technology in Education Annotated Bibliography Assignment
MBA Assignment, 2021
The increase of the use of technology such as ICTs has been the intention of many nations and developing countries have not wanted to lag behind. However, the use of technology in education has been met with various challenges in developing countries. It is for this reason that this study will seek to investigate the challenges in the use of scientific technology in the education sector in developing countries.

Science and technology in the public domain are characterised by two opposing trends. On the one hand they are with increasing intensity present in the public domain (Gregory and Miller 1998) via a multiplicity of channels like the official pedagogic discourse and the mass media. On the other hand though, the level of the public awareness about science and technology seems to be alarmingly low (i.e. Eurobarometer 1993; Miller 2000). This trend is further reinforced by the growing anti-science movements and skepticism about the social impacts of science and technology as well as by the revitalisation of a large number of pseudo-scientific areas (Holton 1992). Within such a social climate the role of the techno-scientific texts of the public domain is very important since they have a considerable contribution in the formation of the general public's 'image' about science and technology. The term 'public domain' is used here to name a communicative distinct field in which the technoscientific knowledge is presented to lay-audiences-for example, students and the lay public. Typical of such texts are school science textbooks and science articles appearing in the popular press. These are part of a communicative continuum consisting of what Cloitre and Shinn (1985) call the fields of intra-specialist, interspecialist, pedagogical and popular communication. The archetype of the intra-specialist communication field is the techno-scientific articles that appear in specialised journals and are addressed to a very narrow community of experts. The inter-specialist communication field, on the other hand, consists of texts addressed to the wider techno-scientific community. The objective of these texts is to address people coming from a variety of neighbouring disciplines. Typical examples of such texts are the articles in journals like Nature or Science. Pedagogical communication is the field that comprises texts that tend to present well-established theories to those who are being educated in science and technology. The purpose of such texts is to reproduce the current paradigms (Kuhn 1962, Fleck 1979, Hatzinikita, Koulaidis, Sklaveniti, Tsatsaroni 1996, Koulaidis & Tsatsaroni 1996), of each disciplinary area. The archetype of these texts is the school science textbooks. Popular communication, in contrast, is the field containing all the techno-scientific texts of the mass media (press, television, popular magazines, and so on) as well as in semi-specialised magazines such as Scientific American, National Geographic or the French magazine Science et Vie. The first two of the above fields, is shown in Figure 1, constitute the broader communication field within which the techno-scientific knowledge is communicated among the experts (techno-scientific domain) whereas the latter two constitute the field in which the corresponding knowledge is presented to non-experts (public domain).
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND BLOCKCHAIN FOR MODERNISE TEXTBOOKS, 2023
According to the 2016 UNESCO Global Education Monitoring Report, the content and methodology of school textbooks often fall short of expectations . The 2030 Roadmap for Education for Sustainable Development, launched in Berlin in 2021, brings renewed attention to the urgency of action in this area . Unfortunately, the conclusions of the Jubilee Report of the Club of Rome Come On! on the state of textbooks in the world are still relevant today. The report stated that the content of textbooks has undergone virtually no change in the last 50 years, lagging today behind the development of science by 100 years!
SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION: NEW DEVELOPMENTS AND INNOVATIONS, 2023
This is an open access book. The aim of 2023 5th International Baltic Symposium on Science and Technology Education (BalticSTE23) is to bring together innovative academics and practice experts in the field of Science and Technology Education to a common forum. The primary goal of the symposium is to promote research and developmental activities in Science and Technology Education and another goal is to promote scientific information interchange between researchers, developers, students, and practitioners working all around the world. The symposium is taking place every two years to make it an ideal platform for people to share views and experiences in Science and Technology Education, and related areas.

are the fifth in the set of proceedings of AETS annual conferences. We are pleased to have had the opportunity to edit them. Over 40 papers and summaries of presentations from the conference are included here, along with a copy of the conference program. The papers and presentation summaries are ordered by the corresponding conference session designation and by the first author's last name if it did not appear in the printed conference program. Each paper and presentation summary submitted for inclusion in the proceedings was reviewed by one of the four editors. Because these proceedings are to serve as a record of the 2000 AETS annual meeting, the papers and presentation summaries were not heavily edited and were not refereed. Those papers and presentation summaries that were revised and returned by a designated date were included. These proceedings are disseminated via the ERIC Clearinghouse for Science, Mathematics and Environmental Education in microfiche form (with hard copy available through ERIC) and on the AETS World Wide Web Site at URL http://www.aets.unr.edu/. Given ERIC documents and web materials are not copyrighted, papers and presentation summaries included in these proceedings may be submitted for publications in journals such as the Journal of Science Teacher Education and Science Education. For information on how to secure a microfiche or hard copy of these proceedings through ERIC, see your campus or local library, WWW URL http://edrs.com/, or phone 800-433-ERIC. Also, the papers and presentation summaries included in these proceedings may be downloaded directly from the AETS WWW site as a RTF (Rich Text Format) file.
