Preparing Future Leaders for Diversity

May 12, 2008

This country's evolving demographic landscape demands that STEM leaders address equity and diversity in mathematics education. In response to these needs, a major goal of WCER’s DiME/CLT project is to prepare a new generation of education researchers who will focus on the mathematics education of diverse student populations. A new 5-year study follows the career trajectories of a group of emerging scholars whose work focuses on equity and diversity in mathematics education. The study is organized around two primary areas of interest: (a) the early career trajectories of the individual scholars and their professional experiences related to their commitment to scholarship in equity and diversity in mathematics education; and (b) the extent to which professional community is maintained over time.
