Join the UNESCO Chair for a seminar on pressing social justice issues within South African STEM education.
Professor Cuthbert and Eunice Nyamupangedengu explore how the Topic-specific Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TSPCK) framework can be leveraged to advance inclusive teaching.
Drawing on research and experiences from Eunice’s work, Cuthbert and Eunice examine how STEM teacher educators can prepare pre-service teachers for socially-just practices that respond meaningfully to diversity in classrooms.
The seminar will critically reflect on the implications of these insights for STEM teacher education globally, focusing on building inclusive pedagogies in complex and unequal contexts like South Africa.
