Many national initiatives in K-12 science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education have emphasized the connections between teachers and improved student learning. Much of the discussion surrounding these initiatives has focused on the preparation, professional development, evaluation, compensation, and career advancement of teachers. Yet one critical set of voices has been largely missing from this discussion - that of classroom teachers themselves. To explore the potential for STEM teacher leaders to improve student learning through involvement in education policy and decision making, the National Research Council held a convocation in June 2014 entitled "One Year After Science's Grand Challenges in Education: Professional Leadership of STEM Teachers through Education Policy and Decision Making". This event was structured around a special issue of Science magazine that discussed 20 grand challenges in science education. The authors of three major articles in that issue - along with Dr. Bruce Alberts, Science's editor-in-chief at the time - spoke at the convocation, updating their earlier observations and applying them directly to the issue of STEM teacher leadership. The convocation focused on empowering teachers to play greater leadership roles in education policy and decision making in STEM education at the national, state, and local levels. Exploring Opportunities for STEM Teacher Leadership is a record of the presentations and discussion of that event. This report will be of interest to STEM teachers, education professionals, and state and local policy makers.

A persistent challenge infects the vast setting of academic pursuits; the enduring gender gap in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Despite incremental progress, women continue to face formidable obstacles, ranging from entrenched stereotypes to institutional oversights. The urgency of addressing this issue cannot be overstated, as evidenced by UNESCO's revelation that less than 30% of the world's researchers and scientists are women. Exploring Intersectionality and Women in STEM seizes this pivotal moment, unraveling the complexities of the gender gap in STEM and daring to propose transformative solutions. This book is not just an analysis of disparities; it is a dynamic and initiative-taking guide for researchers, STEM students, and practitioners. By immersing oneself in its pages, the reader becomes an agent of change, armed with insights into life sciences, physical sciences, engineering, mathematics, computer science, and health sciences. Through a transdisciplinary lens, the book illuminates a path toward a more inclusive and equitable future.
