Kelsey Watts; Will Richardson – Biomedical Engineering Education, 2024
Women and non-white racial and ethnic groups remain underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). To achieve a more diverse and equitable STEM workforce, the recruitment and retention of these historically marginalized communities in postsecondary education will also need to increase. Recently, the lens has turned to…

Potvin, Geoff; Hazari, Zahra; Khatri, Raina; Cheng, Hemeng; Head, T. Blake; Lock, Robynne M.; Kornahrens, Anne F.; Woodle, Kathryne Sparks; Vieyra, Rebecca E.; Cunningham, Beth A.; Kramer, Laird; Hodapp, Theodore – Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2023
Women and many people of color continue to be minoritized in STEM and notably in physics. We conducted two studies demonstrating that exposure to counternarratives about "who does physics" and "why one does physics" significantly increases high school students--especially women's--physics-related career intentions. These…

Umit Aslan; Michael Horn; Uri Wilensky – Science Education, 2024
Science educators are integrating more and more computational thinking (CT) activities into their curricula. Proponents of CT offer two motivations: familiarizing students with a realistic depiction of the computational nature of modern scientific practices and encouraging more students from underrepresented backgrounds to pursue careers in…

Tolbert, Sara; Gray, Salina; Rivera, Marelis; Schindel, Alexa – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2022
Drawing from intersectional feminist scholarship, we communicate how Salina and Marelis, both women of color, teach science for social justice in the face of significant institutional challenges. Theorizing from their experiences and practices, we articulate a feminist praxis for school science, which includes (1) building community and…

Kyle Long; Bernhard Streitwieser; Joy Gitter – Current Issues in Comparative Education, 2024
Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, commentators in broadly accessible media have offered a surfeit of predictions about the future of higher education. Due to the absence of accountability mechanisms, however, the accuracy of these claims has been heretofore unknown. Research shows that op-eds and other forms of public scholarship influence public…

Dana Christine Thomas – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Physics is known for its emphasis on innate brilliance as a prerequisite for disciplinary membership and success. Women, Black, Latine, and Indigenous individuals remain vastly underrepresented and marginalized in physics spaces, a reality that is due in part to oppressive stereotypes that position them as less inherently intelligent than their…

Flores, Tracey T.; Schwab, Emily Rose; Johnson, Wintre Foxworth; Rusoja, Alicia – Literacy Research: Theory, Method, and Practice, 2020
In this article, we share findings from three qualitative studies, illustrating how children of color and their families make meaning of the racial, linguistic, cultural, and gendered worlds in which they develop. The first study examines how White adoptive Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer (LGBTQ) parents engage in race conscious child-rearing…

Cohen, Joel I. – Journal of Education, 2023
Naturalists enrich our scientific understanding of biodiversity. However, just as countries have fallen behind on commitments to provide biodiversity conservation funding, so has the focus of life science stayed arm's length. The purpose of this article is to consider why biodiversity should be the center of life sciences education and how…

Lauren Hickman McMahon – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Interpersonal interactions between teachers and students are a site where students may encounter negative experiences with mathematics; they are also a site where students can experience mathematics in empowering and positive ways. The aim of this study is to understand the work of communicating mathematics in ways that empower, rather than…

Ren, Xinyue – TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, 2022
The participation and engagement of traditionally underrepresented students remained low in computer science subjects and career paths, especially women and women of color. In terms of the urgent need to achieve intellectual diversity within the computer science field, many institutions strived to broaden the participation of women and women of…

Ng, Wendy; Ayayqwayaksheelth, J'net; Chu, Sarah – Journal of Museum Education, 2022
In this article, the tree is used as a metaphor for the birth, nourishment, growth, stress, pruning, resilience, and regeneration of decolonial work to indigenize museum education. At the center of this work is Indigenous peoples, perspectives, and ways of knowing and being. This principle has guided the work of the authors who assert that when…

Woyshner, Christine – Social Education, 2020
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. The fight was a protracted one, lasting over 70 years, and it did not result in equity for diverse women. Voting and citizenship came to women of color differently depending on region, class, race, and ethnicity. For example,…

Bailey J. Nafziger – Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council, 2022
Gifted education and honors education often parallel one another. By using a theoretical construct from gifted education as guidance, honors colleges could adjust their programs to spark interest and expedite talent development of minorities in STEM and health preprofessional tracks. Small improvements include adjusting advising models, using…
