This $3,057,609 project grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program, aims to highlight the stories and STEM identities of historically marginalized communities in local contexts. The "STEM in Your Neighborhood" (SIYN) project will: 1) establish equitable community engagement processes, 2) engage residents in participatory STEM-story sharing, 3) develop community-authored STEM narratives, and 4) broadly disseminate the findings. The project's primary research questions focus on identifying forms of cultural capital in community-authored narratives and understanding how these relate to feelings of belonging, competence, and autonomy. The transformational mixed-methods research design centers the experiences of marginalized communities to shift perspectives on STEM and reclaim community ownership. The project plans to develop a system for community STEM-story collection and interpretation, freely share research findings, and provide a toolkit for community-authored STEM narratives.
