Framing STEM Education as a Force for Good

This session introduces a framework for how STEM Education can connect science, technology, engineering, and mathematics to principles of equity and social transformation. The session lays the groundwork for understanding four foundational principles rooted in Catholic Social Teaching, yet which are universally applicable in other private and public educational contexts. These are: 1) affirming the dignity of all human beings; 2) promoting the common good; 3) advancing human flourishing of the marginalized and vulnerable; and 4) acting with rights and responsibilities.
