On June 7, 2023, NSF's Directorate for STEM Education (EDU) welcomed NSF-funded researchers Margaret Eisenhart (University of Colorado Boulder) and Lois Weis (SUNY Buffalo) to give a nuanced view of the obstacles marginalized students face in STEM education and explain how schools can better support STEM learners. Reporting the results of a nine-year ethnographic study, the speakers chronicled the outcomes of STEM education reforms in eight public high schools with nonselective admissions policies and high proportions of low-income and underserved students: four schools in Denver, Colorado, and four in Buffalo, New York.

This webinar recording and future events celebrating the EDU Core Research (ECR, formerly EHR Core Research) program's 10th anniversary can be found on NSF's ECR Insights page.
