Members of the Joint Working Group on Improving Underrepresented Minorities (URMs) Persistence in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM)-convened by National Institute General Medical Sciences Howard Hughes Institute-review current data propose deliberation about why academic "pathways" leak more for URM than white or Asian STEM students. They suggest expanding to include a stronger focus institutional barriers that need be removed types interventions "lift" students'...
Focusing on "where we've been, where we are, and we're going," the authors examine minority women's White progress in science, mathematics, engineering, technology (SMET) over past decade. Starting from an exploration of participation achievement data, move to cover theories behind SMET gender differences, including those based testing, biology, social-psychology, cognitive sciences. Looking at practice as well theory, explore impacts that interventions contextual influences, such societal...
Abstract In this study, we conducted in‐depth interviews with 52 college graduates as they entered a Postbaccalaureate Research Education Program (PREP). Our goal was to investigate what it means for these aspiring scientists, most of whom are from groups underrepresented in the sciences, feel ready apply doctoral program biomedical sciences. For our analysis, developed and used theoretical framework which integrates concepts identity‐in‐practice literature Bourdieu's formulation cultural...
Seven instructors at five institutions adopted process-oriented guided inquiry learning (POGIL) activities for their first-year courses. These POGIL were designed to prompt students reflect on the relevance of curriculum own lives. Students significantly more comfortable with computers after taking courses, even compared same course from instructors. However, there was no overall effect students' interest in CS classes. Based these findings, authors developed "Levels Student Participation...
The self-belief, motivation, tendency to procrastinate and learning styles of engineering students are discussed. It is proposed that has developed an idiom a approach favours the dominant client, i.e. men, while simultaneously undermining self-efficacy motivation women. Thematic coherence teaching within context familiar have been shown previously be effective approaches for engaging extended here utilise common experiences all initiate cycle. These combined with template uses 5Es (Engage,...
This paper analyzes perspectives on academic careers among 60 beginning PhD students in the biomedical sciences. It presents seven articulated by sample and explains way that race/ethnicity, gender, students' family education backgrounds are tied to those perspectives. The findings show traditionally underrepresented find career path less navigable than from well-represented groups. Among students, even higher backgrounds, experiences related race/ethnicity gender often inform perceptions of...
Young biomedical PhD scientists are needed in a wide variety of careers. Many recent efforts have been focused on revising training approaches to help them choose and prepare for different However, very little is known about how students decide "differentiate" into careers, which limits the development new models. This knowledge gap also severely increase representation women some racial/ethnic groups academic research Previous studies used cross-sectional surveys career interests ratings,...
Professional and popular media have recently given welcome attention to gender equity education. For example, national news programs newspapers across America featured The AAUW Report: How Schools Shortchange Girls (American Association of University Women, 1992), a review over 1,100 research studies from the last 20 years documenting gaps in educational persistence achievement, especially mathematics science. two decades, researchers program developers produced steady output work on Women's...
Abstract Concerns about equity in mathematics tend to assume that “all the women are White, all Blacks men.” This occurs even though research and programs need focus on individuals their complexity rather than defining them solely by race or sex. Along with focusing address multiple areas, this article includes an overview of encourage girls minority boys mathematics, what is known effectiveness impact such programs, implications for agenda mathematics.
Women remain underrepresented as biomedical faculty and are more likely than white Asian men to lose interest in careers graduate school. However, some women maintain academic research during PhD training the most candidates for positions. This study explored how these described interpreted gender issues at early stages their training. Annual interviews from 2009 2014 with 22 female students aspiring were analyzed using an iterative, content analysis approach rooted interview data. Focusing...
In 1985 the authors of chapter on this topic for original Handbook Achieving Sex Equity through Education concluded that data patterns sex differences in mathematics participation and achievement were “inconsistent” (Stage, Kreinberg, Eccles, & Becker, 1985). many ways, their conclusion still holds.
To advance justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion in science, we must first understand improve the dominant-culture frameworks that impede progress and, second, intentionally create more equitable models. The present authors call ourselves ICBOs Allies Workgroup (ICBOs stands for independent community-based organizations), represent communities historically excluded from sciences. Together with institutional allies advisors, began our research because wanted voices to be heard, hoped...

Abstract This methods paper describes the development, use, and initial findings for Focus & Actions of Students Teachers Observation Protocol (FASTOP). The ICAP model benefits interactive (I), constructive (C), active (A) learning over passive (P) learning. However, instructors who seek to adopt more effective pedagogies often overestimate their use such practices and/or omit key elements. Thus, our research seeks enhance understanding classroom practice by combining data from student...
Black women in graduate school can experience stress due to blatant and subtle acts of gendered racism. However, we do not know how such stressors are navigated over time among those who successfully complete their PhDs. The current study used a feminist thought framework narrative analysis conduct longitudinal exploration three successful biomedical students make sense respond racism they experienced the coping strategies employ as persist. When interacting with others, low expectations...
Despite progress in increasing the representation of minorities science and mathematics education, pattern underrepresentation continues at higher educational levels scientific, engineering, medical workforce. At pre-college level, minority students, particularly those who live urban areas, often do not have access to high-quality opportunities that would support their participation these fields. This study sought determine whether providing such opportunities, this case through Gateway...
As part of the POGIL Teaching to Increase Diversity and Equity in STEM (TIDES) project, seven instructors at five institutions adopted Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) activities for their first-year courses. These were designed regularly prompt students reflect on relevance curriculum own lives, but did not successfully incorporate students' cultures into classes. Students significantly more comfortable with computers after taking course activities, even compared a similar...
