Connect science learning to students’ lives and aspirations through stories.


Connect science learning to students’ lives and aspirations through student's personal stories so that they see themselves as learners of science. Through being able to identify with science learning students can aspire to see science in their future.


Have you created a learning environment where students feel comfortable in sharing their families, communities, stories, rituals and traditions?

'Stories in Science is an online platform where people can share stories about their relationship with science and read stories that have been shared by others. As noted on the website, “We are surrounded by so many stories in science. Stories of success, failure, fear, discovery, serendipity, collaboration, separation, inspiration, mentorship, and so much more.” One of the aims of the site is to inspire and to connect with those involved in science as well as those interested in science. Reading through the stories, there seem to be some common themes around challenges, determination, support, and surprising turns.'
