Innovation + Opportunity = Equity
Equity is not a goal, it is the lens through which one should see the world. It should be a natural outgrowth of culturally responsive, student-centered STEM education enterprises.
At the STEM Equity Alliance we envision a world in which Innovation is a mindset ubiquitous with STEM instruction and Opportunity is the orientation of each educational system. These are not lofty aspirations as there are examples of this effective work across the nation; the goal is to make it commonplace, regular, and expected.
