Scientific specialism is inevitable, but not in the field of teaching. Science, technology and society (STS) studies’ approach along with the history of science can equip students with the skills to face the complexities of society. The introduction of this teaching approach within upper secondary schools could represent the unifying element missing from the increasingly jagged scientific curricula. At school, it is important to educate students to debate scientific values, because these will determine the
political choices and social visions of tomorrow.
