The home appliance (r)evolution, a case study of how to include global justice in a STEM teaching sequence in secondary education

Abstract

Learning about any STEM content can also include the view of global justice in order to promote critical thinking among students by inviting them to be the protagonists of an action of social transformation. In this sense, the (r)evolution of home appliances is a didactic sequence that was conceived within the EduglobalSTEM working group to work on electricity and gender stereotypes in Technology and Insdustrial Technology subjects in 2nd of ESO and 1st of Batxillerat respectively.
