Science, Learning, Identity: Sociocultural and Cultural-Historical Perspectives

This book, which features detailed case studies of identity as both resource and outcomes of learners in a variety of settings, will be of interest to anyone concerned with learning science in and out-of schools. The book also caters for readers who have wondered about how identity mediates science learning and, simultaneously, how engagement in science-related tasks and activities mediates the emergence and development of identities. The general tenor of all chapters is a cultural-historical and sociocultural framework that is brought to issues of identity, thereby inherently transcending the individual person and linking identity to cultural possibilities.Roth, Wolff-Michael is the author of 'Science, Learning, Identity: Sociocultural and Cultural-Historical Perspectives', published 2007 under ISBN 9789087900809 and ISBN 9087900805.
