Through a case study of a girl student, this paper attempts to draw linkages between science classroom, gender and the larger discourse on the economy and job market. The ideal science student is constructed through classroom interactions, and a particular ideal is fostered which is highlighted in this paper. This paper sets itself to locate the micro-processes such as the classroom interactions, pedagogy and textbooks in the larger macro-context of economy, social mobility and jobs. It draws from the critiques of meritocracy and neoliberal ideology to present the arguments. Through an ethnographic approach, the study focuses on the experiences of students in science classrooms. The school chosen is located in an urban context in India. Examples from the classroom interactions and discussions with the students reveal how certain kind of conduct is promoted in the classroom. Through the description of dreams and aspirations and notions of science and scientists of a girl student, this paper argues that the learning of science is situated in the context of globalisation and neoliberal ideology. The classrooms, pedagogy and notion of aspirations and mobility seem to foster this economic discourse. This paper points to the fact that there is a need for alternative approaches in the teaching of science.

“世界将前进!”:通过案例研究探索在城市环境中学习科学和愿望的方法

通过对一个女学生的案例研究,本文试图在科学课堂,性别与更大范围的经济和就业市场话语之间建立联系。理想的理科学生是通过课堂互动来构造的,并且会培养出一种特殊的理想,本文对此进行了重点介绍。本文着眼于在更大的经济,社会流动性和就业宏观环境中定位微观过程,例如课堂互动,教学法和教科书。它是从对精英管理和新自由主义意识形态的批判中提出的。通过人种志方法,该研究侧重于科学教室中学生的体验。选择的学校位于印度的城市环境中。课堂互动和与学生讨论的例子揭示了如何在课堂上促进某种行为。通过对一个女学生的梦想,科学的抱负和科学观念以及科学家的描述,本文认为科学学习是在全球化和新自由主义意识形态的背景下进行的。教室,教学法以及对志向和流动性的观念似乎促进了这种经济论述。本文指出了一个事实,那就是在科学教学中需要替代方法。教育学以及对志向和流动性的观念似乎助长了这种经济话语。本文指出了一个事实,那就是在科学教学中需要替代方法。教育学以及对志向和流动性的观念似乎助长了这种经济话语。本文指出了一个事实,那就是在科学教学中需要替代方法。
