Topics
This series of virtual meetings will explore implementation strategies for the 2025 National Academies report, Transforming Undergraduate STEM Education. The report outlines seven research-based Principles for Teaching and provides guidance for undergraduate STEM educators and institutions on improving undergraduate instruction. The principles and their implementation have the potential to reshape students’ learning experiences both in person and in on-line courses. These events will help educators and academic leaders in STEM disciplines and those developing STEM courses and courseware realize effective change, with a focus on mathematics departments, contributions from technology, professional learning for educators, and system change.
Description
The National Academies will host a set of virtual meetings to discuss implementation strategies related to the 2025 National Academies consensus study report, Transforming Undergraduate STEM Education. Focusing on mathematics departments, contributions from technology, professional learning for educators, and systemic change processes, each event will feature speakers from the consensus study committee as well as individual researchers, professors, and practitioners proving examples of how key concepts and recommendations from the report can be realized. This project will also develop a suite of tools and documents to share with various stakeholders across the country through websites, conferences, and convenings.
