The demographics of the workforce in STEM fields have remained largely unchanged for more than a decade.
This presentation examines the most recent research and best practices in creating diverse and inclusive STEM communities in secondary education.
STEM educational leaders, including teachers, administrators, instructors, professors and trainers interested in creating a more inclusive and diverse STEM workforce should attend.
Participants will learn to help students see STEM fields as relevant and meaningful in their lives through culturally relevant curriculum and pedagogy, problem-based learning experiences and social justice focused curriculum.
