It is an old, yet relevant, argument that education needs to focus more on real-world issues in students’ lives and communities. Nevertheless, conventional school curricula in many countries create superficial boundaries to separate nature and social worlds. Connecting science and society provides opportunities for relevant, engaging, and authentic learning through personally meaningful, experiential, inquiry, and place-based practices which are fundamental to scientific and environmental literacy (Chinn, 2007). In other words, a science learning standpoint that acknowledges a societal standpoint accumulates that human activities are driving environmental and evolutionary change (Palumbi, 2001; Mapping Human Impacts on the Biosphere, 2001).

A one-year, full-time position as a postdoctoral researcher is available at the Department of Science Education, University of Copenhagen, Denmark, with the possibility of a one-year extension. The position starts on December 1st, 2019, or as soon as possible thereafter.
The postdoctoral position will be attached to the research group on Science Education in Out-of-School Contexts, which has strong working relationships with a number of Danish out-of-school science institutions. Members of the group work together to understand and improve the use of out-of-school science in primary, secondary and tertiary education, and increase participation in out-of-school science by increasing the gender, socio-economic and ethnic diversity among participants.
The research programme of the group is based on the Anthropological Theory of Didactics (ATD), meaning that its research revolves around the transformation of science as it is taken up from the world of scientists and other scholars, and subsequently reconstructed in the educational initiatives of out-of-school science institutions. The societal, institutional, pedagogical and didactical conditions that shape this transformation process are a part of the group’s area of study. More information on the research group and its programme is available here: https://outofschoolscience.sites.ku.dk

V. mit Unterstützung des Thüringer Instituts für Lehrerfortbildung, Lehrplanentwicklung und Medien (ThILLM) sowie des Landesverbands Thüringen des Verbandes Biologie, Biowissenschaften und Biomedizin (VBIO) Ort Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena Institut für Zoologie und Evolutionsforschung / AG Biologiedidaktik Großer Hörsaal Zoologie Erbertstraße 1 07743 Jena Anmeldung erbeten bis zum 7. Juni 2018 Auf ihrer diesjährigen 27. Jahrestagung wendet sich die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Geschichte und Theorie der Biologie e. V. vom 22. Juni bis zum 23. Juni 2018 in Jena dem Themenkomplex Biologie und Bildung zu. Unser modernes Weltbild wird wesentlich durch naturwissenschaftliches Denken bestimmt: In dieser Welt zurechtzukommen bedarf einer Grundbildung und der Bereitschaft, sich mit naturwissenschaftlichen Themen auseinanderzusetzen (Scientific Literacy). Biologische Bildung – als ein Teil des Wissensbestandes der Menschheit – bietet die Möglichkeit, Bereiche der Wirklichkeit zu verstehen und kausal erklärbar zu machen. Dabei entscheidet biologisches Wissen ganz wesentlich über Fragen der Gegenwart und Zukunft, bietet Orientierung in einer durch Naturwissenschaften und Technik geprägten Welt, bindet an die Natur und fördert einen verantwortungsvollen Umgang mit den Organismen (Thüringer Bildungsplan 2017). In der Geschichte der biologischen Disziplinen treten die Verflechtungen zwischen fachlicher Ausbildung und dem sozialen bzw. politischen Gefüge besonders klar in Erscheinung. Dieses Wechselspiel wird an den (bis heute anhaltenden) Auseinandersetzungen um Lehrpläne im Fach Biologie, besonders in Verbindung mit einzelnen Unterrichtsgegenständen deutlich: Die Probleme bei der Einbindung der Darwin’schen Entwicklungslehre im 19. Jahrhundert (Lippstädter Fall), die zwei Dutzend Verhandlungen vor amerikanischen Gerichten, die zwischen 1925 (Thomas Scopes) und 2005 über den Stellenwert der Evolution im Schulunterricht entschieden, und nicht zuletzt die kürzlich erfolgte Streichung der Evolutionsbiologie von den Lehrplänen türkischer Schulen verdeutlichen, welche Bedeutung dem Themenkomplex Biologie und Bildung beigemessen werden muss. Die historiographische Perspektive auf die Didaktik und Methodik des Biologieunterrichts und die Auseinandersetzung mit den zeitgenössischen Bildungsmedien, wie Sammlungen, deren Systematik, Produktion und Verwendung, zeigt denn nicht nur Brüche und Kontinuitäten in den biologischen Wissenschaften, sondern auch solche in Gesellschaft und Politik. Sie sind herzlich eingeladen, unsere Tagung zu besuchen! Bitte beachten Sie neben dem nachstehenden Programm auch die unten aufgeführten Hinweise zur Anmeldung und Tagungsgebühr, zur Anerkennung als Lehrer*innenfortbildung, sowie die kleineren organisatorischen Hinweise zum Tagungsort und zur Anreise am Ende dieser Seite.

Professor Anna Danielsson, Uppsala University
Associate Professor Henriette Holmegaard, University of Copenhagen
Associate Professor Lene Møller Madsen, University of Copenhagen
Course description
Science education research has previously been dominated by a quantitative regime applied by science researchers. However, the use of qualitative methods has gained momentum and belongs to a growing area within the field. The area is growing both because the field of science education are moving towards asking explorative questions as why and how (as for example why do young people struggle to see themselves in science) but also because the cross-disciplinary field of science education draws on both natural science knowledge and theories and methodologies from social science and the humanities. Hence, doctoral students within science education research are working in a cross-disciplinary field with no clear traditions or guidelines of how to design qualitative studies.
This course addresses these challenges by offering an in-depth hands on exploration of qualitative methods within the field of science education. It will provide tools, knowledge and guidelines to the doctoral students in general and more particular support the doctoral students in developing their own methodologies. The course focuses specifically on the use of qualitative methods in science education, why doctoral students within science education research will have first priority. However, it will also include issues related to educational research in general, why students from related research areas as educational research in general are encouraged to apply as well. The course will take place at the Department of Science Education, University of Copenhagen and it will last one full week (3 ECTS).

Student Portfolios of their creative work can be useful “What if we have a portfolio to see the changing patterns of their creativity from, for example, Grade 1 to Grade 8. The use of a creativity portfolio for mapping students’ framework from grade to grade (or through the yearly change of classes) can also provide useful data. The record of student’s creativity patterns can also guide students in many ways to re-frame, re-examine and re-define their growing potential. It is also a tool for discussing deep learning options and provides new possibilities for critical thinking. The framework can also be used for other formats of students’ work and mapping learning patterns.” ******** In our teaching and learning we make connections between a number of things (such as ideas, material objects, nets of numbers, nets of ideas, social-net, cognitive-net, internet and more), on the other hand there are many links made in our brains (neuron connections and more)—Is there any way to find if these connections made in the learning environment and in the inner world (Brain) have any effects on each other! An interdisciplinary study can provide data to compare. How can we inspire our education with interdisciplinary connectomes? Pathways to explore more with theory, research and practice!

Making connections of various forms can lead to innovation, make discoveries and facilitate deep learning
It is fascinating to explore how the first flash of an innovative idea can change in to a bright star.
Student Portfolios of their creative work can be useful
“What if we have a portfolio to see the changing patterns of their creativity from, for example, Grade 1 to Grade 8. The use of a creativity portfolio for mapping students’ framework from grade to grade (or through the yearly change of classes) can also provide useful data. The record of student’s creativity patterns can also guide students in many ways to re-frame, re-examine and re-define their growing potential. It is also a tool for discussing deep learning options and provides new possibilities for critical thinking. The framework can also be used for other formats of students’ work and mapping learning patterns.”
********
In our teaching and learning we make connections between a number of things (such as ideas, material objects, nets of numbers, nets of ideas, social-net, cognitive-net, internet and more), on the other hand there are many links made in our brains (neuron connections and more)—Is there any way to find if these connections made in the learning environment and in the inner world (Brain) have any effects on each other!
An interdisciplinary study can provide data to compare.
How can we inspire our education with interdisciplinary connectomes?
Pathways to explore more with theory, research and practice!

Living in the Paradigm of Multiple Nets [A world of making connections, finding nets, exploring links] The world of nets – inside our brain and in the outer world (What is the relativity of nets? What are the links between the inner and the outer nets!) Living in the paradigm of multiple nets can re-frame, re-examine and re-define our theory, research and practice Few common examples (Many extensions can be compared) Subject 1 + Subject 2 = A New Field of Study Idea 1 + idea 2 à Leading to new levels of innovations (Or more than two combinations can also be observed) Linguistics + Computers = Computational Linguistics Quantum + Biology = Quantum Biology Linguistics + Palaeontology = Linguistic Palaeontology Social Processes + Neuroscience = Social Neuroscience Inventions by combining two technologies or two gadgets or more Car + Bike = Car Bike Cardboard + Bike = Card Board Bike Binary Math + Electronics = Computers Phone + Internet + Touch screen =? Neuro-links, social-links {reaching the new galaxies in the expanding universe of ideas} How various nets play a role in our learning & creativity? How does the interface of nets influence our lives? Nets of concepts Nets of associative links Nets of ideas Nets of subjects Nets of numbers Nets of communication Nets of social frames Nets of inventions Nets of personal skills [An important paradigm to research- expanding insights and connections to our theory & practice in education/ related fields of study] Many groundbreaking discoveries and inventions were based on making some form of links & connections between the ideas and the objects. Inspiring, tracking, mapping our ways of making links between various ideas, certain objects & studying neurological links of inside and outside world can be of help in applying research and teaching models. "Kids need to learn how to leap across disciplines because that is how breakthroughs now come about. It's interdisciplinary combinations- design and technology, mathematics and art—that produce youtube and myspace." (TIME, December 18, 2006, page 34) Cognitive-net and grid patterns inside and outside worlds [Finding grid like diagrams of brain & making grids (or links) of ideas and linking theory, research & practice] The neuroscience research about the analysis of brain is also bringing new tools to enrich the psychological and educational pathways in this field (such as The Brain Targeted Teaching Model by: Mariale Hardiman; Mind, Brain & Education by: David A Sousa et al. 2010). The importance of making neurological connections to enrich the functions of brain is explained by many studies. On the other hand the intriguing ways of making connections of ideas, connecting experimental indicators, connecting subjects and connecting the fields is also leading to the revolutionary ways of new era in science, math, technology, art (and more subjects). In the outer world the making of connections is mostly observable in the forms of connecting a number of ideas. Just a few examples include: - Connecting the idea of space and time (pioneering groundbreaking theories) - Binary math and electronics to invent computer fields (connecting ideas) - Art, science, math, electronics and internet leading to YouTube - Subjects integrating to lead to new fields (cognitive science, quantum biology, computational linguistics, computational neuroscience) - Inventions by combining certain systems: connecting the idea of car and bike, and inventing Car-Bike, Wheelchair car, cardboard bicycle (the list is long) - Also noticed that students feel inspired to make their own inventions when provided opportunities to make connections and by showing them the examples of others to make inventions by making connections (cognitive-net and social-net) - Almost all forms of learning & innovation has some form of making connections, nets and links The idea of making connections in the inner functions of brain and the outer world elements is leading to think of cognitive-net, social-net {nowadays also Internet} This research has interdisciplinary scope, neuroscientists, educators, cognitive scientists, psychologists, linguists etc. In the year 2014- A Nobel Prize (for Medicine) was given for the “discoveries of cells that constitute a positioning system in the brain". {Like an inner GPS in the brain} https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/2014/press.html A possible hypothesis to explore further: Making nets of ideas and the nets of subjects in our learning environment can also inspire unique and faster neural connections to facilitate our learning, innovation and understanding “highly regular grid like structures in the brain”, A National Institute of Health study. Book “How to create a mind” by Ray Kurzweil Page 84 “The construction of stronger, more efficient networks (faster retrievals, greater transfer) in long-term memory is stimulated by repeated activation of the circuit, such that practice makes permanent.” Mind, Brain & Education. David Sousa [et al.] 2010. Page 58. ...................................... If an interdisciplinary research is conducted to highlight the intriguing factors of the outer world links and the inner world of neuroscience (understanding the process of making connections in the inside and outside worlds & inspire pathways for creativity), probably this idea (cognitive-net!) will have some enriched data to apply it in a number of ways. Some implications for psychology, education and other related fields with a vision to develop new fields of study are possible (cognitive-net & beyond). Perhaps it may enrich the way we work in various fields!

( Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A. Osborne have discussed this challenge in their paper The future of employment: How susceptible are jobs to computerisation, published on September 17, 2013. ) The field of education is emphasizing about EQ (Emotional Quotient), BQ (Body Quotient), MQ (Moral Quotient) along with more conventional IQ (Intelligence Quotient).
