Abstract
This paper endeavours to discuss further the pressing issue of neoliberalism (along with the accompanying realities of consumerism and globalization) and its pervasiveness in the field of science education. A number of recently published science education journal issues (CSSE, JRST and soon to be Science & Education) have significantly opened and exposed issues in science education concerning neoliberalism and consumerism in the context of globalization and global capitalism. This significant shift in the science education literature has brought forth diverse voices about/against neoliberalism along with different approaches to research in the field of science education. The goal of this paper is to contribute to this discourse by joining post-structural and pedagogical voices for change in science education. We discuss specifically the usefulness of the post-structural subject, some aspects of the field of science education, and the power of pedagogical approaches concerning neoliberalism in the form of dialogue. The authors, two doctoral students from Canada and Greece, bring forth both divergent and convergent perspectives and in doing so create new understandings between themselves regarding the relationships between neoliberalism, science education, pedagogy and post-structuralism.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
