Through personal and scholarly perspectives, Black researchers share experiences of seeking, establishing, or finding belonging in science education across diverse settings. Authors from various institutions offer insights into traditionally White universities and a distinct home in Africa. By showcasing counter-narratives and strategies, this book supports the next generation of science education researchers and teacher educators. Drawing from interdisciplinary traditions?historical, philosophical, psychological, and sociological?it provides a nuanced understanding of research, identity, and community within the field. 410 0$aContemporary Trends and Issues in Science Education,$x1878-0784 ;$v65 606 $aScience$xStudy and teaching 606 $aContinuing education 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aAdult education 606 $aScience Education 606 $aLifelong Learning 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aAdult Education 615 0$aScience$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aContinuing education. 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aAdult education. 615 14$aScience Education. 615 24$aLifelong Learning. 615 24$aHigher Education. 615 24$aAdult Education. 676 $a507.1 700 $aAtwater$b Mary M$01852811 701 $aGarvin$b Brittany A$01852812 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911034864603321 996 $aCreating and Maintaining a Home in Science Education Research$94448692 997 $aUNINA
