Inequities in STEM learning hinder American progress. To tackle this, the National Academies' Board on Science Education formed a 16-member expert committee. They reviewed equity issues in STEM education and provided steps for improvement in the report Equity in K-12 STEM Education: Framing Decisions for the Future. In this webinar, Committee members will overview the study's key conclusions and recommendations, and discuss future research opportunities. Register here: https://myumi.ch/5y5PD

Gilbert: We are seeing more male teachers joining STEM education which was originally for female teachers and this is a problem. Lastly, most schools in rural areas have no access to electricity and this is a challenge to STEM education. #STEMEducation #VexRobotics #RobotsInUganda #UGRobotics2024

The theme of this year’s Children’s Week (19-27 Oct) is “Children have the right to a clean and safe environment”. Gain inspiration for how you can empower children to contribute to a clean and safe world with these inquiry-based STEM project ideas from early learning services across Australia: https://lnkd.in/gRjFfeFC   The 2024 Children’s Week theme is a great launchpad for co-developing an inquiry-based project with your children. If you’re new to inquiry-based STEM projects, they involve children exploring a specific question with an emphasis on process (rather than quickly finding the answer). Inquiry-based projects build upon the children’s interests and give them the space to plan, implement, and document their investigations.    Check out our Inquiry Cycle here: https://lnkd.in/gRjFfeFC   #STEMEducation #EarlyChildhoodEducation #EducationActivities #ECEC #EarlyLearning #EarlyLearningActivities #ChildrensWeek 

There are numerous challenges to providing high quality STEM education and workforce development in rural areas. Recognizing these challenges, the National Academies was directed to undertake a consensus study through the CHIPS and Science Act to take stock of existing federal programs that support rural STEM education and workforce development and to develop recommendations for federal, state, and local action to improve it. As a member of the authoring committee, I am proud to announce that on December 11, the National Academies will release "K-12 STEM Education and Workforce Development in Rural Areas." Please join members of the authoring committee for an overview of the report and a discussion of its conclusions and recommendations. Register now: https://lnkd.in/g5TUi-ui
