Team: Dr. Abimbola Asojo (CDES) and Dr Lesa Covington Clarkson (CEHD)

This presentation highlights how a culturally responsive pedagogy is developed and implemented for underrepresented K-12 students to learn about design and mathematics. We will share some short-term outcomes of providing equal access to immersive maker curricula to underrepresented students and how learning losses due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic are bridged.
