JohnPolkinghorne FRS (b.1930), the Cambridge Professor of Mathematical Physics turned Anglican parson enjoys unrivalled opportunities as an apologist for the Christian faith to those with a general scientific education. Without reading a word of his writings, many Christians will be encouraged to know that a distinguished professional scientist is so firmly persuaded of the truth of the Christian faith as to resign a prestigious professional position and embrace the far from prestigious calling of a Christian minister in the secular environment of today. Some who embark on his books may not understand all the scientific allusions, but they will be impressed by his testimony that orthodox Christian belief can exist in harmony with the scientific worldview and vocation.

In this chapter, the authors approach the perspective of Online Education in the Metaverse from the tensioning between what characterizes a novelty and what characterizes an innovation in education. They present and discuss the subtopic “Learning Contexts in Metaverse” to draw attention to those aspects that involve the learning process in the context of 3D digital virtual worlds. In the subtopic “Methodologies in Metaverse,” they present the methodologies: “Methodology of Learning Projects Based in Problems” and “Problematizing Methodology of Case Study.” In the context methodologies, the authors approach the “Pedagogical Intervention in Metaverse.” In the subtopic “Novelty or Innovation?” they bring examples of 3D digital virtual worlds that represent a novelty and/or innovation. In conclusion about the chapter, the authors believe that the development of online education in the metaverse can contribute to elevating the quality in education within the world educational scenario through more innovative pedagogical proposals.

The article tackles the issue of construing the educational content from the standpoint of interdisciplinary causative-systemic approach and previously introduced pattern of shaping pedagogical universities' students' universal scientific worldview (USW). The paper discusses theoretical premises of forming future natural sciences' teachers' integral image of Nature. The suggested approach advocates the integration of data from diverse fields of science in the process of modeling educational content, discusses the notion of the "image of the world" and allocates it in the structure of natural- scientific education. Construing respective academic courses' content encompasses the focal idea of natural causality. The article presents the results of the suggested USW model's analysis and dwells on the results of implementing an experimental course into a curriculum. The paper highlights the said model's axiological potential.

Dr. Eugenie Carol Scott is an American anthropologist who was the executive director of the National Center for Science Education (NCSE). She was a professor and researcher at the Universities of Kentucky and Colorado in the fields of Medical Anthropology and Skeletal Biology. But her name is remembered as a reference in the struggle for quality scientific education and against the teaching of the pseudo-sciences of creationism and intelligent design. With many articles published in the main academic journals of the world and several books, highlighting the recognized "Evolution vs. Creationism: An Introduction" and "Not in Our Classrooms: Why Intelligent Design Is Wrong for Our Schools " Eugenie Scott has always been in the front line to prevent creationism from being taught in US schools. She has been rewarded by various scientific entities for her efforts in this line. She has several university degrees honoris causa, presided and is member of several American academic associations. Even for the merit of her academic life in favor of scientific education, she received an unusual homage in 2014, having the Asteroid 249540 received the name of Eugeniescott (2010 HX14). There is no space here to describe all of Dr. Scott's academic accomplishments, so we must thank, be proud, and enjoy the opportunity to interview the brilliant scientist in our Conexão Ciência journal.
