The Journal of Disciplinary and Interdisciplinary Science Education Research(DISER) announces a special issue related to socio-scientific issues (SSI) in science education. SSI are complex societal challenges with conceptual, procedural, and/or methodological connections to science. Issues such as climate change, viral pandemics, food insecurity, and new applications of biotechnology for healthcare represent some of the many SSI that can be positioned as issues-based opportunities for teaching and learning. The purpose of this special issue is to bring together cutting-edge research and theory focused on the latest developments and insights for SSI education.
