The draft report proposes a framework of national goals and objectives for improving the quality of undergraduate STEM. Based on the comments received, the committee may revise elements of the framework; it will then develop national indicators to monitor progress toward the goals and objectives. At this open session, speakers will comment on the draft report from a variety of perspectives, including two-year STEM, STEM reform initiatives, and individual institutions. Other speakers will address the implications of the draft for using data to improve STEM teaching and learning and the challenges of measuring progress toward increased equity in undergraduate STEM. The agenda will also provide time for comments from participants present and a presentation summarizing comments gathered from the online questionnaire. _______________________ Teresa Teresa Mourad Director, Education and Diversity Programs ESA Office of Education and Diversity Programs<http://www.esa.org/esa/?page_id=250> SEEDS - Diverse People for a Diverse Science<http://www.esa.org/seeds> EcoEd Digital Library (beta) – Advancing Outstanding Ecology Education<http://esa.org/ecoed/index.php> Ecological Society of America 1990 M Street, NW Suite 700 Washington DC 20036 202.833.8773 x 234 202.833.8775 Fax You are receiving this e-mail because you signed up at NAP.edu to receive updates on new publications from the National Academies Press.
