Science textbooks communicate fundamental discoveries and serve as platforms showcasing role models for students. However, the scientists represented across undergraduate textbooks do not reflect the demographic makeup of the student population reading those materials. We recommend a series of changes within curricula to challenge the stereotypical identity of science.
科学教材传播着基本的发现，并为学生展示了榜样角色。然而，本科生教材中所呈现的科学家并没有反映出阅读这些材料的学生群体的人口构成。我们建议在课程中进行一系列改革，以挑战科学的刻板印象。
