Abstract:
The challenge of bringing educational innovations to scale within one organization, let alone an entire STEM Ecosystem can be a daunting task. Furthermore, how can we ensure that we are scaling for equity? It is important to ask, “Who might we be leaving out?” and “What barriers are keeping us from affecting lasting change?” We will share our lessons learned through our scaling journey of a Research-Practice Partnership (RPP) and how the research has helped us to better understand the key asset to change- People! Join us as we work collaboratively to take a closer look at each of our programs with a critical eye and work together to develop a plan for leveraging your organization’s greatest asset- People!
