Singer, Alison; Montgomery, Georgina; Schmoll, Shannon – International Journal of STEM Education, 2020
Background: STEM identity has been shown to have a powerful role in an individual's success in educational environments, as well as on their career goals and trajectories. Historically, however, STEM identity formation for underrepresented students has been hampered by the lack of representation of in STEM fields, which predominantly consist of…

The "New York Times 1619 Project" materials on American popular culture were presented to college students at a Historically Black University & College (HBCU) and a Predominantly White Institution (PWI). Guided by Critical Race Media Literacy, we employed quantitative and qualitative analysis to explore the knowledge-based and…

Girls' underrepresentation in high-level post-compulsory mathematics is a longstanding issue of concern in many Western nations, with innumerable efforts to increase their participation producing little impact. In this paper, we shed new light on girls' underrepresentation through a post-structural feminist investigation of mathematics teachers'…

Bayer, Amanda; Bruich, Gregory; Chetty, Raj; Housiaux, Andrew – Journal of Economic Education, 2020
Economics does not attract as broad or diverse a pool of talent as it could. For example, women comprise less than one-third of economics bachelor's degree recipients, significantly lower than in math or statistics. The authors present a case study of a new introductory economics course that enrolled 400 students, achieved nearly 50-50 gender…

Lucietto, Anne M.; Russell, Liza – Journal of Global Education and Research, 2020
The emphasis on intercultural competence is more prevalent in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) majors as the world shifts towards a more globalized economy. When entering higher education, students have differing levels of cultural interaction due to varying peer interaction, family experiences, international travel, and…

Luis; Ramirez-Alvarado, Marina – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2020
Diversity-focused committees continue to play essential roles in the efforts of professional scientific societies to foster inclusion and facilitate the professional development of underrepresented minority (URM) young scientists in their respective scientific disciplines. Until recently, the efforts of these committees have remained independent…

Herrera, Sofia; Mohamed, Ikram A.; Daane, Abigail R. – Physics Teacher, 2020
In this paper, I (SH) will apply a counter-storytelling method to highlight a perspective that is not often present in the physics culture. The counter-storytelling (or counter-narrative) method gives voice to people from traditionally marginalized groups to share their untold experiences. Counter-storytelling, as the name implies, challenges…

Oyeniran, Rassidy; Lili, Zhang – European Journal of Educational Sciences, 2020
Leadership, particularly, that of school principals is one of the most important concerns in the field of education. Constantly, studies have shown that women educational leaders effectively lead their schools. Yet, the stories behind how a woman leads a primary school and experiences, challenges and barriers in the principalship have not received…

Malcom, Shirley; Malcom-Piqueux, Lindsey – Change: The Magazine of Higher Learning, 2020
The rationale for increasing diversity in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine (STEMM) has evolved over time, but the approaches to making these fields more inclusive have yet to achieve large-scale success for racially minoritized populations. Diverse perspectives are necessary to fuel the high-quality research and…

Baker, Bruce D.; Cotto, Robert, Jr. – Phi Delta Kappan, 2020
An analysis of school district spending across the U.S. reveals 66 districts where the students face much greater needs than in surrounding districts (i.e., child poverty is more than 20% higher) but where per-pupil spending is less than 90% of the region's average. This not only means that they have less money to spend on children who require…
