• Sommario/riassunto: This book presents a compelling and transformative exploration of the often-overlooked domain of primary science education. It features contributions from educators and scholars worldwide, and provides a fresh perspective on the subject by highlighting positive and productive narratives, challenging the prevalent deficit perspective that has long characterized discussions around primary science education. The various chapters include a scholarly examination of real-life stories and experiences in primary science education. In doing so, it shifts the narrative from one that emphasizes challenges and shortcomings to one that showcases the richness, potential, and inherent opportunities for interdisciplinary learning and community engagement within this field. This book invites readers to shift their perspective on primary science education from one of deficits to one of possibilities. It empowers educators and researchers to reimagine the potential of primary science education, and serves as a valuable resource for educators, researchers, and policymakers seeking to enrich science education and inspire young learners worldwide.
