EER Seminar - Equity and Inclusion in STEM Intro Courses
Tim McKay, Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of Physics, Astronomy, Education; Director of the Digital Innovation Greenhouse
Equity and inclusion are central goals for educational institutions. Are these goals being met? Looking back, I'll describe studies which revealed a pattern of gendered performance differences in large foundational courses, both at Michigan and at an array of other Universities. I'll also talk about pursuing solutions: how we use tools like ECoach, both to learn more and to experiment with possible interventions. Looking forward, I will describe an emerging national collaboration, dedicated to the pursuit of equity and inclusion in STEM courses, and describe how students, faculty, and staff here at Michigan can get involved.
