Dr. Macauley provides a framework through which a K-12 institution can objectively examine and address systemic factors that impede the equity and access in the representation of students of color in the STEM pipeline. To counter the plethora of deficit-focused research, he addresses the need for pragmatic solutions through effective teaching that is relevant, high levels of student engagement that is challenging, and support that provides strategic interventions and on-going mentorships.
This book is a must read for parents and those who champion the cause and advocate for maximizing the potential of our students to be adequately prepared to compete on the national and global STEM career opportunities of the 21st Century.
