Focusing on the scrutiny of mathematics and science education, this book examines national debates surrounding excellence and equity, particularly the emphasis on underachievement in these subjects. The authors delve into historical assumptions about the importance of STEM fields for individual success and national development, analyzing claims of declining student achievement. With insights from the United States, New Zealand, Australia, and the UK, the chapters explore how perceptions of a 'crisis' in education are communicated and perpetuated across borders, making it a valuable resource for scholars in the field.
