Happy birthday Rosalind Franklin whose contributions to the discovery of the structure of DNA were largely unrecognized during her life, for which Franklin has been variously referred to as the "wronged heroine" #notjust4geeks#thisdayinscience
My first NEOMED orientation and very happy to be surrounded by wonderful folks who I can have science discussion with. I looking forward to supporting you in this amazing journey! #ThisIsNEOMED#NotJust4Geeks
#AERA24 Mayor take aways: We need to think of test fairness as justice, when we leave language and culture out from test items to make them neutral we focus on the dominant culture, we need to think about fairness and equity throughout the entire test development process.
@LauraJSnyder I love Oliver Sacks. However we have this fascination with the written word. I wish, specially in academia that we would value storytelling and verbal communication as much as we worship the written word.
Despite advances to achieve #genderequity in the #engineering profession, on average, women engineers in the US earn less than men. Explore the data on #paygaps in the #STEM workforce between men and women from different racial and ethnic groups: https://t.co/amoPHo62Qz
Just in time for #WomensHistoryMonth. I am very grateful to be part of this team and contribute to the work of creating equity in #STEM https://t.co/iWKgMf6ppl
Created to provide an introduction to fundamental #DEIB topics, SWE's Inclusion Solution card decks, facilitator guides, participant workbooks, & Inclusion Solution bundles will help your organization promote a diverse & inclusive workplace. https://t.co/BJLdd4BI0X
Sharing our voices and opinions as women in graduate school. It's not a easy journey and a network of support is a must. #GoFlashes#WomensHistoryMonth https://t.co/EH06r6rRNu
Action Science: Relevant Teaching and Active Learning was written as a resource for teachers to integrate practical learning opportunities linked to skateboarding and BMX in order to bring physics to life. Might be of interest to fellow constructivists and educators.
@k_langin@ScienceCareers This is so important! When we talk about marginalized communities in STEM we normally think of racial/ethnic groups. However diversity is so much more than that and we need to be able to understand the experiences of all groups.
@JuliePosselt I am still in the proposal phase, but I am interested in understanding how science departments are creating changes to their GRE admissions policies for their doctoral programs.
Big meta-analytic findings!!! The GREβs ability to predict graduate outcomes has decreased significantly over time as the diversity of graduate students has increased. Predictive value also decreases as samples include more People of Color. https://t.co/7Qhum0leqT
