The essays cover three main areas: the widely-held ideology that science and mathematics are \"value-free,\" which promotes pedagogies of colorblindness in the classroom as well as an avoidance of discussions around using mathematics and science to promote social justice; how male and female students of color experience the intersection of racist and sexist structures that lead to general underrepresentation and marginalization; and recognizing that although there are no quick fixes, there exists evidence-based research suggesting concrete ways of doing a better job of including individuals of color in STEM. As a whole this volume will allow practitioners, teachers, students, faculty, and professionals to reimagine STEM across a variety of educational paradigms, perspectives, and disciplines, which is critical in finding solutions that broaden the participation of historically underrepresented groups within the STEM disciplines.","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47573530181783,"sku":"9781978805675","price":3757.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781978805675.webp?v=1774893100","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/diversifying-stem-multidisciplinary-perspectives-on-race-and-gender-9781978805675","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
