Creating Equity in Science Education
Today’s educators understand the importance of connecting students’ backgrounds and cultures to create equity in the science classroom. But the struggle is knowing where to start.
Here are four areas to consider when attending to access and equity in your classroom:
Student engagement: what motivates and engages students in science learning
Classroom support strategies: what the teacher provides to ensure access, equity, and inclusion
School support system: what the school does to make resources available
Home and community connections: how the school engages families and fosters partnerships with the community
Want to learn more? We have tips, articles, podcasts, and curriculum solutions to help create equity and make cultural connections in your science lessons.
