The Diversifying the STEM Teacher Pipeline Project Team is interested in learning more about how current programs, organizations, and 100Kin10 partners are directly engaged in the recruitment, preparation, and retention of pre-service teachers to diversify the STEM teacher workforce. While most education preparation programs seek to serve all teacher candidates, they particularly want to know more from programs that are specifically supporting efforts to reduce diversity gaps that exist within their local communities. Thank you in advance for taking and sharing this 6-8 minute survey — it will help them share practices and ideas across the network to better serve historically underrepresented groups in STEM teaching.

Having access to robust experiential learning opportunities in science should be a given for all students. However, many young people graduate from high school only having “seen” science, and never having “done” it. Please help the Collaboratively Developing Experiential Learning Activities in Science Project Team by taking this 10 minute to survey to share your perspective on how schools and science-rich institutions can partner together to provide meaningful, science-rich experiences.

We all need to be able to show up to this work with trust, vulnerability, and a collaborative mindset. Here at 100Kin10, we are committed to cultivating supportive and productive environments for everyone in the network. We are embarking on work to explore how our network can deepen its commitment to equity and inclusion, and we’re beginning that work with a focus on racial equity.

If you identify as a person of color and are interested in sharing your thoughts and experiences in a thirty-minute private interview, please reach out to Yasmin Fodil, National Director of Community.

The Addressing Implicit Bias in the Classroom Project Team seeks examples of organizations, school districts, programs, initiatives, tools, or resources that help teachers effectively address implicit bias in their practice. While the team is particularly interested in learning about work with STEM teachers, non-STEM specific examples are also welcome. Please share via email with Team Co-Leader Peter Walsh.

The Supporting Access to Local STEM Resources Project Team is looking to identify opportunities to increase educators’ access to local STEM resources. Help them out by sharing your experience as a current or former educator in this 4-minute survey or by sharing it with educators you know. The first 30 respondents will receive a $5 Starbucks gift card.

Collaborate on a cross-organizational team of 100Kin10 partners and invited guests from January through June on a project that addresses challenges in STEM education and your day-to-day work. Check out all 16 teams up for grabs and apply today!
