Deconstructed Conference Events

Integrating STEM + KC is convening a deconstructed conference and networked improvement community of top researchers, practitioners, and professionals to collaboratively design and implement STEM education improvements to prepare a diverse STEM workforce. Different than a virtual "sit and get" conference, Integrating STEM + KC hopes to develop a general ecosystem model focused on the unique academic, social, and cultural factors influencing STEM education research in our region. Outcomes will contribute an actionable set of data that can be useful for demystifying factors related to postsecondary attrition in the region and identifying feasible educational technology and pedagogies to improve STEM student retention.
