Course Catalog Description
This course is for students interested in STEM education (especially K-12). We explore the promises of STEM of learning in national rhetoric, research, and student accounts. By understanding the productive tensions of STEM as a mechanism for racial and economic justice, we wrangle questions about the purpose of STEM education and how it intersects with issues of dignity and personhood in racially minoritized communities.
