Prerequisite: “ ECSE 7274 - Introduction to Community-Based STEM Education, ECSE 7275 - STEM Mathematics for Social Justice, and ECSE 7276 - STEM Investigations through Ecojustice” The purpose of this course is to foster an understanding of how teachers and STEM experts can influence education and impact communities through committed interactions and the sharing of knowledge. Prior STEM understanding will be enhanced through development of integrated STEM projects for the in-service teacher, elementary and secondary classroom, and for dispersal within the community. Through increased opportunity for action and dialogue associated with socio-cultural issues, students will become adept at identifying avenues for involvement in STEM that encourage community involvement as a means of promoting social justice.
