The pedagogy described here would hold teachers who are not solely relying on the lecture method to teach scientific ideas and conduct scientific investigations with their students, and who are able to relay to students that science is a complex, messy, non-linear, historical, and social process. The ideal teacher would be able to reorganize their teaching and their classroom to be responsive to active learning strategies.
The ideal learner would be receptive to skepticism and in their future professional lives, be able to call baloney, since skepticism is held in this pedagogy as a singular trait of "smart people". The ideal learner would also be able to reflect and make decisions about "real-world" problems, able to evaluate contradictory and competing evidence.
