Wright; Steven J. Spencer – Child Development, 2024
Girls and women face persistent negative stereotyping within STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics). This field intervention was designed to improve boys' perceptions of girls' STEM ability. Boys (N = 667; mostly White and East Asian) aged 9-15 years in Canadian STEM summer camps (2017-2019) had an intervention or control…

Nearly 80% of the total American population lives within the urban sprawl, where rapid urbanization has contributed to an immense reduction of green space. Loss of woods, fields, and other green areas, in conjunction with adolescent preference for indoor and screen-based activities, has led to decreased time spent outdoors. However, studies show…

Prasad, Archana; Lal, P.; Wolde, B.; Zhu, M.; Samanthula, B. K.; Panorkou, N. – Journal of STEM Outreach, 2022
Out-of-classroom activities can help cultivate interest and literacy in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects. To determine how a week-long out-of-classroom experience might impact STEM interest in adolescents, a free summer camp was offered to students entering grades 6-8. During this time, students participated in…

Radakovic, Nenad; O'Byrne, W. Ian; Negreiros, Melissa; Hunter-Doniger, Tracey; Pears, Emily; Littlejohn, Cymone – Literacy Research: Theory, Method, and Practice, 2022
Although literacy research has traditionally focused on content area and disciplinary literacies, in this study we argue for the importance of transdisciplinarity. We employed a participatory action research design to examine pre-service teachers' (PST) planning of a transdisciplinary math and music lesson to understand how conceptual framing of…

Gossen, Drew; Hammack, Rebekah; Utley, Juliana – Electronic Journal for Research in Science & Mathematics Education, 2021
Students who develop interest in STEM careers by the eighth grade are more likely to pursue careers in STEM (Tai et al., 2006). Interest development can happen through a variety of sources, including informal learning experiences such as out of school programs and summer camps. This study looks at one such informal STEM experience, an engineering…
