Is education a science or social science?
The general public often defines "science" under the category of all experimental sciences, or fields of knowledge in which it is possible to control for every variable (math, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, etc.). However when dealing with people, who are much more complicated than mere atoms, it is not possible to have a pure experimental science. The next best thing are what are called non-experimental sciences, or what are more commonly referred to as the social sciences (politics, economics, anthropology, psychology, sociology, etc.).
When education as a field focuses on analysis or improvement, it often uses scientific methodology to improve learning retention, and so in this respect it is a science. However when used for routine purposes, it's more of an art.
How has feminist theory contributed to the social science?
Feminist thought was largely ignored in mainstream social theory until the last few decades, feminist social theory has a history as long and storied as feminist movements themselves. In fact, since feminist theory emerged from women's political movements, it's impossible to tell the history of feminist theory apart from a history of feminism.
The history of feminist politics and theory is often talked of as consisting of three "waves." First-wave feminism is generally associated with the women's suffrage movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. First-wave feminism was characterized by a focus on officially mandated inequalities between men and women, such as the legal barring of women from voting, property rights, employment, equal rights in marriage, and positions of political power and authority.
Second-wave feminism is associated with the women's liberation movements of the 1960s and 1970s. While seeing themselves as inheritors of the politics of the first wave which focused primarily on legal obstacles to women's rights, second-wave feminists began concentrating on less "official" barriers to gender equality, addressing issues like sexuality, reproductive rights, women's roles and labor in the home, and patriarchal culture.
Finally, what is called third-wave feminism is generally associated with feminist politics and movements that began in the 1980s and continue on to today. Third-wave feminism emerged out of a critique of the politics of the second wave, as many feminists felt that earlier generations had over-generalized the experiences of white, middle-class, heterosexual women and ignored (and even suppressed) the viewpoints of women of color, the poor, gay, lesbian, and transgender people, and women from the non-Western world. Third-wave feminists have critiqued essential or universal notions of womanhood, and focus on issues of racism, homophobia, and Eurocentrism as part of their feminist agenda.
