STS Simulations: Engaging students with issues-based scenarios

The Science Teacher – December 2000

Science-Technology-Society (STS) issues-based simulations present science education in an appropriate context for all students. In STS issues-based simulations, students are presented with a controversial issue to investigate from a variety of perspectives. In these activities, students are confronted with open-ended questions that have no right or wrong answers, encouraging them to use critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
