DESCRIPTION:The talk will be held virtually via Zoom and in-person at 107 Norman Smith Hall\, 91¸ŁŔű\, Orono. \n\nVirtual attendance: Complete the registration form for Zoom connection information\n\nSpeaker: Karen Hutchins Bieluch\, Transdisciplinary Research Strategist\, Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions\, University of Maine \nBringing together people from different disciplines\, organizations\, and life experiences to learn\, conduct research\, and develop solutions is both rewarding and challenging. We often begin this work with subject matter expertise and a deep commitment to our projects and partners. Yet most of us have little formal training in how to collaborate effectively\, engage across boundaries\, or lead diverse teams. Thus\, often\, we are learning these skills as we are doing the work. \nIn this talk\, Dr. Karen Bieluch will highlight key features of transdisciplinary practice and discuss approaches and challenges to transdisciplinarity through her work with research teams. She will also invite participants to explore a new resource guide to identify practical tips and techniques to strengthen their own work. Designing Inspiring Workshops & Courses in Transdisciplinarity – A Guide provides research- and practice-based guidance on building collaborations to address complex problems. \nDr. Karen Hutchins Bieluch is the transdisciplinary research strategist at 91¸ŁŔű’s Mitchell Center\, the Practice-Based Learning Specialist in the Dept. of Environmental Studies at Dartmouth College\, and a program evaluation consultant. She specializes in community–university partnerships\, group communication and collaboration\, and program evaluation\, and was selected by leaders at Stanford University as one of 12 North American researchers to participate in an innovative “Train-the-Trainer” program for transdisciplinary researchers. Karen earned her interdisciplinary Ph.D. at 91¸ŁŔű and was a graduate research assistant with the Mitchell Center’s Sustainability Solutions Initiative\, where she developed a commitment to connecting the wealth of resources of community partners and universities to address sustainability challenges.

Following Kevin Roberge’s brief overview of a new course WGS is piloting on socially responsible data analysis\, faculty from STEM fields share examples from their own teaching and research of how equity-related frameworks for inquiry inform and shape their research and/or pedagogy or curriculum\, and by focusing on such questions as: \n1) How do critical or equity-related frameworks impact research and/or teaching in your field?\n2) How do you convey the importance or significance of these frameworks to your students\, and what obstacles and or challenges have you faced along the way?\n3) What is one example of this kind of work from your own research and/or teaching? \nPresenters\n· Kevin Roberge\, he/him\, M.A. in mathematics\, Women’s\, Gender and Sexuality\nStudies lecturer.\n· Sue Ishaq (“eyeshack”)\, she/her\, Ph.D.\, Associate Professor of Microbiomes\nand Founder of the Microbes and Social Equity working group\n· Meredith Kirkmann\, she/her\, P.E.\, Associate Professor of Construction\nEngineering Technology\n· Reed Miller\, he/him\, Ph.D.\, Assistant Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering URL:/calendar/event/wgs-gender-studies-and-quantitative-research-in-stem/ LOCATION:Bangor Room\, Memorial Union\, University of Maine\, Orono\, ME\, 04469\, United States CATEGORIES:Faculty/Staff Development,Public Programs and Shows,Student Activities GEO:44.897732;-68.6687076 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Bangor Room Memorial Union University of Maine Orono ME 04469 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=University of Maine:geo:-68.6687076,44.897732 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
