SENCER SUMMER INSTITUTE 2022

CRITICAL CONTEXTS AND CRITICAL PEDAGOGIES FOR STEM LEARNING-ADVANCING DEMOCRACY, SOCIAL JUSTICE, AND CARE IN STEM EDUCATION.

"US sinks to new low in rankings of world's democracies"  The US has slipped 11 points in a decade - below Argentina and Mongolia - according the latest report by a democracy watchdog.  The Guardian, Levine, S. (2021, March 24) https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/mar/24/us-world-democracy-rankings-freedom-house-new-low<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fncsce.wildapricot.org%2FEmailTracker%2FLinkTracker.ashx%3FlinkAndRecipientCode%3DEZ597Myhmwe4NtEUL6ZQw69XK1QMOIUDuIW3fJFKlAgsZLeiw4FWKSiLEgmdiT2H2H%252bm3Lb17%252f5UvLkQE2SDLW7cOOhCaBTD7aOeg7BGd6M%253d&data=05%7C01%7Ckptucker%40fgcu.edu%7C47e45a93a0db41fa19c708da57bc2a56%7Cf7a5a4ef4ffa4c80bfb3c12e28872099%7C0%7C0%7C637918763521676038%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Celmdk1X7sFDuirC97j7goXB6dB6hiERovyfN8gWNuY%3D&reserved=0>

"Unless education has some frame of reference it is bound to be aimless, lacking a unified objective...There exists in this country such a unified frame. It is called democracy." John Dewey. "Education and Social Change," (1937)

"...what's wrong with contemporary U.S. democracy....Where have we gone astray?...what part, if any, has our education system played in helping to create and perpetuate these problems?  In particular, what part has our higher education system played?  Alexander Astin, "Liberal Education and Democracy: The Case for Pragmatism" (1997)

Since its founding in 2001, SENCER has focused on STEM education that empowers students as civic agents who can use their knowledge to advance democracy, justice, and human flourishing.  Join us this year as we consider our grave responsibility as educators in this critical time.
