Rri Bridges Science Education and Communication

The Innovator’s Perspective

  • Chapter
Science and Technology Education and Communication

Part of the book series: International Technology Education Studies ((ITES,volume 15))

  • 400 Accesses

Abstract

The overall purpose of this book is to seek cross-disciplinary insights concerning education and communication about science and technology. Reading through the chapters of this book, multiple perspectives have been explored on both science & technology education (STE) and science & technology communication (STC). If there is one such thing as an overall message, a red thread throughout the book, it is possibly that the education and communication related concepts used in the education/communication approaches, do not have exclusive value in solely either one of these two professional domains.
