Data as a Next Step for STEM Education Reform

POSTER

Abstract

The SEISMIC project is a multi-institution collaboration focused on using equity and inclusion as metrics of success for introductory STEM courses. The structure of the collaboration is based on the Henderson, Beach, and Finkelstein framework which categorizes change strategies into four quadrants - prescribed/individuals, emergent/individuals, prescribed/environments \& structures, emergent/environments \& structures. This poster details the structures of SEISMIC to demonstrate how the project embodies this framework, with data as a unifying theme. The SEISMIC collaboration showcases the importance of data and multi-institutional collaboration for advancing reform efforts on a national scale.
