Resumen de Climate in the classroom.

Eugenie C. Scott, Minda Berbeco

• The author looks at the impact of religious- or politically-motivated academic freedom legislation to prevent or manipulate the teaching of scientific topics such as evolution and climate change. She discusses the development of the Next Generation Science Standards for U.S. state education, which would mandate the teaching of evolution and climate change. She argues that uniform scientific education standards would give students a science foundation based on facts and not ideology.
