Women and people of color being overlooked are one of the identified areas which need to be addressed. The self-reflections of these practitioners include mistakes that have been made, lessons learned, and lives touched. The document ends by offering some proposed solutions to mediate the underrepresentedness of these women and people of color.

The demand for STEM education has been a growing concern and demand for Chinese nationals. To answer this demand, the Chinese Ministry of Education has stated curricular units need to include innovative, creative, and student inquiry centered learning activities. Integrative STEM education is well suited as a platform to facilitate such learning objectives. However, current curriculum often teaches STEM content separately. This collaboration outlines a framework to STEMify existing curriculum, enhance teacher preparedness with STEM, and STEM education course design.
