Indigenous Ways of Knowing & STEM: A Conference focused on the Successes, Tensions, & Possibilities for Learning

本次会议的总体目标是将学者和学生聚集在一起，集中讨论当前STEM教育中的问题和理解，并考虑未来STEM教育研究的潜在方向。调查人员提议召集一个由来自不同学科和专业领域的约30名学者组成的小组，讨论与STEM教育有关的问题，并于2月份在AAAS年会之后或之前举行为期一天的会议。除了这些受邀的研究人员外，他们还将邀请有相关兴趣的土著学生和当地学者。会议将包括三次研讨会、一次学生海报会议、旨在促进教学研究中潜在合作的分组圆桌会议，以及一次专题主旨演讲。

The overarching goal of this conference is to bring together scholars and students to focus on current issues and understandings in STEM education for Native students and to consider potential directions for future research on STEM education. The investigators propose to gather a group of approximately 30 scholars from various disciplines and areas of expertise together to discuss issues related to STEM education for a one-day conference in February directly following or directly before the AAAS annual meeting. In addition to these invited researchers, they will invite Indigenous students and local scholars with related interests. The conference will consist of three symposia, a student poster session, clustered round tables intended to cross-fertilize potential collaborations in research on teaching and learning, and a featured keynote address.
