2021 Poster - Partnering for Equitable STEM Pathways for Youth from Underrepresented Communities

November 4, 2021 | Public Programs, Professional Development, Conferences, and Networks, Informal/Formal Connections

Access & opportunity in STEM remain limited for youth from historically underrepresented backgrounds in the US & UK. We present findings grounded in Participatory Ethnographies into STEM pathways, highlighting how youth participate in ISL across time and settings in equitable and transformative ways, and practices that ISL practitioners engage in towards supporting pathway authoring. We take a pathways lens to highlight the multiple directions one may take through a particular ecology towards a wide range of outcomes beyond the STEM career, such as STEM agency and identities. Our study involves middle-school youth and ISL practitioners in four cities (Lansing, MI & Portland, OR; London & Bristol, UK).

This poster was presented at the 2021 NSF AISL Awardee Meeting.
