Abstract

I have been serving as an AAAS-Science and Technology Policy Fellow at the National Science Foundation in the Division of Undergraduate Education for the last two years. I will share lessons learned from this experience about communicating with government officials. Specifically, I will focus on reframing STEM education and education research as multifaceted tools for science advocacy. I will also discuss program and project evaluation as underutilized tools for the promotion of STEM. Improving the way educators and educational researchers collect and share project and program results can facilitate communication among researchers, educators, nonprofits, and government and assist these entities in promoting STEM and STEM education.
