Valdez; Jennifer White; Quinn White; Ehren Wittekind; Katelyn M. Cooper; Sara E. Brownell – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2024
Positive outcomes from undergraduate research experiences (UREs) have resulted in calls to broaden and diversify participation in research. However, we have little understanding of what demographics are reported and considered in the analyses of student outcomes from UREs. Without this information, it is impossible to assess whether participation…

Dynarski, Susan; Nurshatayeva, Aizat; Page, Lindsay C.; Scott-Clayton, Judith – National Bureau of Economic Research, 2022
Non-financial barriers to college are an important possible explanation for socioeconomic, racial, gender, and other gaps in college access and success. A sizeable economic literature documents policy efforts to understand and address these barriers. We review this literature on non-financial interventions for improving college access and success…

Oh-Young, Conrad; Buchter, Jennifer; Morgan, Chelsea W.; Clark, Christine – Journal of Special Education, 2023
The field of special education has made great strides in identifying interventions that work. These practices have been described as evidence-based because they were effective across numerous studies. However, scholars in the field are also acutely aware that not all evidence-based practices will be equally effective for all children. Because of…

Gladstone, Jessica R.; Cimpian, Andrei – International Journal of STEM Education, 2021
Is exposing students to role models an effective tool for diversifying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)? So far, the evidence for this claim is mixed. Here, we set out to identify systematic sources of variability in STEM role models' effects on student motivation: If we determine "which role models" are effective…

Fisher, Camilla R.; Thompson, Christopher D.; Brookes, Rowan H. – Higher Education Research and Development, 2020
In Australia, the number of female graduates in some science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines is as low as 15%. Previous reviews exploring the issues affecting female undergraduate STEM students are primarily based in North America and there is yet to be an Australian focused review. This review identifies the factors…
