Description
In this treatise, I hope to show that science educators can engage students philosophically with a distinctive methodology that incorporates critical thinking applied to the pressing issue of climate change—as it has played out in the public sphere. Specifically, this approach can be applied to claims about climate change to help the science educator present a more robust picture about this life-threatening issue and deal directly and systematically with students’ misconceptions and resistance to modern climate science.
