Dear colleagues,
We are seeking chapter proposals for the book (Under)Represented Latin@s in STEM:
Increasing Participation Throughout Education and the Workplace edited by Timothy Yuen,
Emily Bonner, and María Guadalupe Arreguín-Anderson from the Department of
Interdisciplinary Learning and Teaching at UTSA. This edited book has been contracted with
Peter Lang Publishing with an expected publication date in early 2018.
This edited book examines critical issues surrounding the underrepresentation of Latin@s
in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) in the United States. This
collection of scholarly chapters will explore a broad range of historical and contemporary
issues surrounding Latin@ underrepresentation in STEM, spanning multiple contexts, grade
levels, learning environments, learner ability, and STEM disciplines. The book will
present research on evidence-based programs aimed at increasing Latin@ participation in
STEM throughout the educational pipeline from the perspectives of teacher preparation,
family and community involvement, and student engagement.
Please visit
https://goo.gl/C76QUq for more information and proposal guidelines. The
deadline for chapter proposals is December 1, 2016. Please contact any of us if you have
any questions.
Sincerely,
Tim Yuen, Emily Bonner, and María Arreguín-Anderson
