Was part of your action plan during #ShutDownSTEM to get out there and tell your story? The primary mechanism for visibility in our field is who owns the narrative. In STEM, it is critical that we know who we are and how our backgrounds have shaped the value we bring to the field, but we rarely get the chance to practice our own storytelling.
This 90-minute webinar will explore the components of a great story, spotlight guest authors, and invite you to submit a written pitch of your own to scientific societies.
The Mountains Are Calling and We Can All Go! Accessibility, Inclusion and Innovation in the Geosciences
Wednesday, June 24 from 12pm to 1pm PT
Dr. Anita Stone Marshall is a Lecturer and researcher in the department of Geological Sciences at the University of Florida, Gainesville and a member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma. Her primary research area is Geoscience Education with a focus on access and inclusion for underrepresented groups in STEM, especially people with disabilities. Her work focuses on making experiential learning opportunities more accessible through programs like the Library of Inclusive Field Technology (aka the L.I.F.T. kit) - a lending library of tech tools that enables the participation of students with disabilities in field learning activities.
In this webinar, Dr. Marshall will share her personal journey in STEM and discuss accessibility and inclusion in the field of geoscience.
