Building a STEM DBER Alliance

published Jan 18, 2017 1:23pm

As part of NSEC's funded Research Action Cluster and in conjunction with AAAS, we held a meeting of discipline-based education researchers (DBER) in November 2016. The purpose is to build a cross-DBER community of scholars to advance and disseminate knowledge and theory that promote learning and success for all students across STEM fields. At its core, this STEM DBER community will focus on undergraduate learning and teaching at 2- and 4-year colleges and universities, with links to K-12 and graduate education. STEM is broadly defined to include social and behavioral sciences.
