The following is a brief review of science, technology, and society (STS) education as it has developed especially in the United States in recent years, with comments from a Latin American perspective — using Colombia as an example and a point of reference while venturing some generalizations. I do not intend to present definite conclusions, but only to propose a few points for further consideration.
