Article Synopsis
- Minoritized students are underrepresented in STEM fields, and educational institutions often focus on their deficits rather than their strengths.
- Community Cultural Wealth (CCW) is an asset-based framework highlighting the cultural strengths that diverse students develop in response to systemic oppression.
- Using a QuantCrit approach, researchers designed a valid measure of CCW that includes 100 items to capture the lived experiences of minoritized students, aiming to challenge deficit narratives and promote equitable analyses.
