Abstract

This conceptual article calls for the transformation of the antiquated educational system into an innovative PreK-12 model that embraces the goals of multicultural education and the pedagogical strategies commonly associated with a holistically integrated STEM curriculum. Teaching STEM through a multicultural lens creates rich opportunities where all students, especially those who have been historically marginalized in STEM fields, can develop identities such as scientists, mathematicians, creative artists, and valued citizens as part of a global team effort. Recommendations are made to educational policymakers, curriculum developers, school administrators, teacher educators, and PreK-12 teachers to collectively create a STEM educational model that is equitable, pluralistic, and a path to social justice.
