Exploring Culturally Responsive STEM Pathways for Native Undergraduates

This Research and Education Innovation proposal was funded through Kansas NSF EPSCoR Track 1 Microbiomes of Aquatic, Plant, and Soil Systems across Kansas. This research investigates the role of multicultural, culturally responsive, and place-based science education to enhance Native STEM education and broaden participation in STEM research. This funding allows researchers collaborating on programs aimed at undergraduate science education for Native students to compare curriculum development and related motivations and outcomes.
