Effective undergraduate STEM education reform requires institutional change and faculty development, not just student support. Culturally responsive teaching advances diversity and inclusion, crucial for maintaining U.S. scientific leadership.

Area of Science:

  • STEM Education
  • Higher Education Reform
  • Neuroscience Education

Background:

  • Current undergraduate STEM education reforms often focus on students rather than systemic institutional change.
  • This approach fails to address faculty professional development and departmental climate, hindering progress.
  • Marginalization of underrepresented groups persists, threatening U.S. global preeminence in science and technology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore advances in culturally responsive undergraduate STEM teaching.
  • To examine the outcomes of these teaching approaches.
  • To foster discussion on effective STEM higher education reform strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent advances in culturally responsive undergraduate STEM teaching.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Analysis of outcomes associated with these pedagogical approaches.
  • Interactive session at the 2017 FUN Workshop to discuss reform.
  • Main Results:

    • Culturally responsive teaching strategies show promise for improving STEM education.
    • Understanding 'what works best for whom and under what conditions' is key to successful reform.
    • Attendees engaged in self-reflection and contributed to future reform directions.

    Conclusions:

    • STEM higher education reform necessitates a shift towards institutional capacity building and faculty support.
    • Culturally responsive pedagogy is vital for creating inclusive STEM learning environments.
    • Sustained national efforts are needed to ensure a diverse and competitive STEM workforce.
