Gaps in STEM performance have narrowed over the last 50 years (Leaper et al., 2012; National Science Foundation, 2013). Nonetheless, disparities remain in many STEM fields -- with the largest occurring in the physical sciences, computer science, and engineering (UNESCO, 2012). Although gender gaps in science and math performance have been closing,…

Today, all 50 states have adopted some form of a tiered support system. Different levels of adaption were observed as a result of diverse considerations from state education agencies. We adopted the secondary research approach and carefully reviewed the information presented on each state's DOE Website. Through this research, we developed the…

This article addresses first what students and professionals "know and do not know" about cultural competence and anti-racism. The authors then focus on dispositions (what students and professionals "want" to know and "do not want" to know), and then skills (e.g., strategies, techniques, resources). They suggest that…
