Every fifteen minutes\, a student majoring in any of the STEM disciplines either changes his or her major to a non-STEM discipline or withdraws from college altogether ( NSF 2017). This troubling phenomenon disproportionately\, although not ex clusively\, affects students of color who now comprise the fastest-growin g undergraduate populations in US colleges and universities. Advancing di scovery and innovation demands that US institutions of higher education\, and the professional organizations that support them\, hear and heed the clarion call for greater diversity in STEM. However\, we cannot continue to turn to mere workaround strategies that\, by themselves\, fail to add ress the root causes of the underrepresentation of diverse students in th ese disciplines. Rather\, we must lean toward a broadening participation agenda that is more daring than accommodating\, reflective than prescript ive\, and more open- than closed-ended.
Dr. Mack's presentation w ill focus on the highly acclaimed AAC&\;U Teaching to Increase Diverse and Equity in STEM (TIDES) initiative\, which is targeted toward empower ing STEM faculty to implement culturally responsive teaching strategies i n STEM classrooms. These strategies have been shown to not only effective ly retain underrepresented students in STEM\, but also to significantly i mprove STEM faculty self-efficacy in proactively addressing the academic needs of diverse students with cultural awareness\, consciousness\, and c ompetency.
