New Research Report!
The Effective Access project recently released a final report
culminating 3 years of research on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)
educators' use of digital resources. The project, funded as a part of the National Science
Foundation’s National Science Digital Library (NSDL) program, focused on high school STEM
educators as an important and broad subset, as high school STEM remains a priority of
education reform in the United States. As a multi-layered project, this research is
organized into several areas: the technology itself (technology access and capacity; the
technology environment); the content and design of the digital resources; and the perceptions,
assumptions, experiences, and practices of the teachers. Important lenses for the examination of
these research areas are the social-cultural contexts and demographics of the educators, students,
and technology designers. Available on-line.

New Video!
Making schools work for all students
(Winner of the Catalyst Award for Excellence Bronze Award)
|
Gender Healthy/Respectful Schools an award-winning video, was produced and developed by the EEC's Gender, Diversities, &
Technology Institute and 7 Generations Video.
The video is approximately 18 minutes. (NOTE: To view Gender-Healthy Schools on your computer,
you will need a media player like Real One Player and/or
QuickTime Player.)
Gender Healthy/Respectful Schools captures the experiences and lessons learned
in a three-year project in Boston and Cambridge, Massachusetts schools. Funding from the Caroline
and Sigmund Schott Foundation allowed teacher teams to develop projects that would contribute to
the creation of schools in which girls and boys thrive socially, emotional, and academically;
pursue interests and build competencies free from gender-biased, stereotypical expectations;
and become confident that they can and do make a difference in their world. The video highlights
key characteristics of gender healthy/respectful schools.
Individual copies of Gender-Healthy Schools are available at $20 each. They can be ordered from the
Gender, Diversities & Technology Institute, EDC, 55 Chapel Street, Newton, MA 02458. Checks should be
payable to EDC.

"The
Role of Education in Preventing Gender-based Violence"
Proceedings from the Inter-American
Forum
San Jose, Costa Rica
February 7-8, 2002
The Institute and our partner, the Universidad de Costa Rica's Center for Research
in Women's Studies, brought together 26 participants from 10 countries around
the Americas to begin an ongoing dialogue about gender violence. The goal of
the Forum was to bring together people who weren't part of the "usual crowd" at
international gatherings, but rather to link practitioners and researchers and
to reach across boundaries of country and language to focus on how education
can support the elimination of gender violence. Click here to find out more or
to view the publications from the forum.
