A Programme for Increasing Social Justice & Environmental Sustainability
Welcome!
Because governments have struggled to adequately address many harms in relationships among fields of science & technology and societies & environments (STSE), I work with graduate students, teachers and others to educate students (e.g., with the framework below) so they may eventually self-direct research-informed & negotiated action (RiNA) projects (as at right/below) that may overcome STSE harms of their concern.
Elaborations of STEPWISE are available at:
- Brief STEPWISE Overview (pdf file).
- STEPWISE Pedagogy Article (pdf file).
- STEPWISE, in Detail (web page).
STEPWISE education encourages & enables RiNA projects like this one:
Uses of the STEPWISE framework are supported by our open-access Resources, including the comprehensive ones linked below:
Collaborative Action Research
Teachers and others wanting to use the STEPWISE framework and related resources and collaborate with one or more members of our educational research team (e.g., graduate students &/or me) in collaborative action research to learn more about and improve the framework – and, possibly, publish results of this research – should contact me at: larry.bencze@utoronto.ca. Also, please share our site with other teachers and others – perhaps using this flyer.
