Transforming STEM education for all in collaboration with PreK-12+ educators through professional development, research, & community engagement
A great teacher can spark a love of STEM in future generations of students. Thus, the STEM Education Center is committed to empowering educators with the guidance to lead relevant, integrated, and inclusive STEM learning experiences with their students and communities.
Our work is informed by current research and by the lived experiences of educators, learners, and community members.
We believe that everyone has the capacity to do STEM and that everyone should have access to high-quality STEM learning experiences. We seek systemic ways to broaden the participation in STEM, especially those that have been historically excluded in STEM, and work with others towards equity in education. Thus, we are dedicated to the strengthening of STEM learning ecosystems through partnerships among teachers, administrators, community members, and funders — all with the common goal of advancing and transforming STEM education.
Our values, the pillars of our work:
- Empowering Educators
- High-Quality STEM
- Equity, Inclusion, and Anti-racism
- Communities in Partnerships
- Scholarship in STEM Education
