Our FMN Mentors
Over the 2021-2022 school year--another difficult year for educators amidst changing pandemic guidelines--BioQUEST ran 13 Faculty Mentoring Networks, bringing together more than 100 educators to connect over a broad common goal: to improve the student experience in today’s STEM classrooms.
Participants explored how they could incorporate and teach new skill sets, how they could give students hands-on research experiences, how the data and models used could be made more relevant, inclusive, applied and much, much more.
Nineteen mentors led the way in these groups, creating community at a crucial time, and providing expertise, advice, and guidance. In doing so, they have made significant contributions to STEM education, the professional growth of their peers, and to creating a vibrant, scholarly, innovative community around STEM education reform.

Thank you to our mentors for their time, effort, expertise, generosity, and commitment to professional growth and STEM education reform.
