DESCRIPTION
The SciAct STEM Ecosystems to Broaden Participation in Authentic STEM Learning: Connecting Subject Matter Experts, Communities, and Learners of All Ages (“SciAct STEM Ecosystems”) project was developed to understand and share practices used by STEM learning ecosystems that support the creation of authentic learning experience to broaden participation in STEM. The summative evaluation focused on understanding how dissemination of project findings and deliverables through project meetings and webinars impacted the capacities and understandings of professional participants.
