In an effort to address issues of equitable and quality education, culturally responsive science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) pedagogy is explored across the State of Hawai‘i based on the Mathematics Common Core State Standards and Next Generation Science Standards. The Ethnomathematics and STEM Institute brings together research institutions and community-based organizations including the University of Hawai‘i System, Hawai‘i State DOE, Pacific American Foundation, Pacific Resources for Education and Learning, Hawai‘i P-20 Partnerships for Education, and the Polynesian Voyaging Society to support professional development for P-20 statewide educators. We strive for values-based, lifelong learning grounded in promising practices and curriculum that are relevant, contextualized, and sustainable.
