In this chapter, the authors cover the importance and challenges of incorporating teaching for social justice in science teacher education courses. The chapter starts by providing an overview of the literature on social justice, specifically in science education, and define the terms social justice, equity, and diversity. Then, the authors, who are teacher educators from under-represented groups, share their own experiences about what led them to do social justice work. In addition, the authors present examples from their courses with their preservice teachers and instructional strategies they used. The chapter concludes with recommendations of ways in which we might consider implementing social justice practices in teacher preparation courses.

O pensamento computacional vem ganhando importância na Educação Básica, como instrumento para o desenvolvimento da aprendizagem, e os cursos de Informática, com foco na formação de professores, são responsáveis pela formação de profissionais para fomentá-la. Assim, utilizando o método Design Science Research, foi definido e implantado um método de análise de dados públicos. Uma vez que o método foi implantado, foram analisados dados de Instituições de Ensino Superior do Brasil e dados do Exame Nacional de Desempenho de Estudantes (ENADE). Explorou-se o perfil dos cursos e alunos de Licenciatura em Computação, com foco em compreender, como as diferentes constatações sobre esses cursos se relacionam com a qualidade do curso. Os resultados mostram que muitos fatores estão relacionados ao desempenho do curso no ENADE, tanto fatores associados aos alunos matriculados nos cursos, quanto fatores associados aos cursos e instituições. Por fim, este artigo apresenta uma visão geral dos cursos de formação de professores de informática no Brasil, considerando as qualidades do curso.

<span>This report describes our efforts in fostering Taiwanese pre-service teachers' ability to integrate information and communication technology (ICT) and teaching. The current state of science teacher education and ICT policies in Taiwan are documented briefly. The course model, MAGDAIRE (abbreviated from Modeled Analysis, Guided Development, Articulated Implementation, and Reflected Evaluation) is then introduced to counterbalance the insufficiency of the current teacher education courses in Taiwan. The model is subsequently employed to enhance a science teacher education course at National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU). The study conducted along with the course indicates that MAGDAIRE can significantly improve pre-service teachers' ICT knowledge and skills. Moreover, MAGDAIRE can significantly enhance pre-service teachers' sensitivity to the complex interactions between ICT, pedagogy, and subject matter. Some recommendations for employing the proposed model to enhance teacher education courses are discussed.</span>
