Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

In this symposium, we focus on discussing practice and promise in informal STEM learning environments. As an emerging field of learning, informal STEM education offers a broader understanding of learning with great potential to disseminate alternative images about individual disciplines. The panel of researchers will introduce the contribution of their research and practice in informal STEM learning environments and discuss the implication of (in)equity in these environments. Presenters, along with feedback from audience participants, will articulate promising directions for promoting equity in informal STEM learning environments.
