Kelsie Fowler & I wrote this @stemteachingtool.bsky.social with two goals:

1️⃣ As a conversational artifact for the 5 KEY EQUITY FRAMES for #STEMed that are core to the report & their guidance

2️⃣ To share an equity assessment tool teams can use to promote equity: stemteachingtools.org/link/10116
February 19, 2025 at 10:57 PM
Our @stemteachingtool.bsky.social is built directly from the research synthesis & detailed guidance in the @nasem-education.bsky.social report EQUITY IN K-12 STEM EDUCATION: FRAMING DECISIONS FOR THE FUTURE:

nap.nationalacademies.org/catalog/2685...

All who work in #STEMed should read this report!

The current administration took the Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST) offline.

The Public Environmental Data Project posted the latest version publicly so that this important resource could still be accessed. Thank you!!

Happy Solstice, everyone!

I’ve been rereading a lot of Le Guin lately…

“To see a candle’s light one must take it into a dark place.”
— Ursula K. Le Guin

Here’s to longer days, more sunshine, and seeing the light!
