Have a Seat with the C-Suite, Vol. 9

STEM, STEAM, IDEA, GATE, PACER, TESOL – education is rife with catchy acronyms, but sometimes they come at us so quickly that we lose track of their importance. Today, we home in on issues related to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) education and why gender equity has to be a top priority in ongoing STEM efforts.

We in the C-Suite are dedicated to making sure that women are promoted to and coached through executive positions in schools, districts, and universities. To learn more about women in leadership this week, we take a broad look at how women lead in other sectors.

Have a Seat with the C-Suite, Vol. 7

Welcome back to Have a Seat with the C-Suite. We are all politics and policy nerds so this week we bring you a roundup focused on exactly that. An unprecedented number of women and people of color are running for office at all levels. The articles below offer some additional context that may be of interest to educators and fellow wonk wannabees.

Have a Seat with the C-Suite, Vol. 5

In this week’s Have a Seat with the C-Suite, we broaden our outlook to include global efforts at gender equity (and global consequences of gender inequity). While our focus is typically on the US context and particularly on US schools, our efforts are designed to complement and echo the work of people worldwide who are already deeply engaged in similar efforts.

Have a Seat with the C-Suite, Vol. 4

Higher education has been in the news a lot lately and, at least at my institution, the issues in the news become topics of our hallway chatter. This week’s roundup reflects some of the current events I thought were most applicable to both higher ed and K12 colleagues.
