Inhaltsangabe

This critical examination of STEM discourses highlights the imperative to think about educational reforms within the diverse cultural contexts of ongoing environmental and technologically driven changes. Guidelines and questions are included to engage STEM students in becoming explicitly aware of how the dominant myths of Western science promote false promises of what science can achieve and maintain the myth that scientific inquiry is objective and free of cultural influences.
