Tucker-Raymond and coauthor Brian E. Gravel of Tufts University, define and illustrate five key STEM literacies: identifying, organizing, and integrating information; creating and traversing representations; communicating with others for help and feedback during making; documenting processes, and communicating finished products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tucker-Raymond hopes the book underscores both the agency of learners and the academic potential that learning in making spaces can support. \u201cDr. Gravel and I hope that the book is a way to understand learning in all kinds of making spaces,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the text emphasizes making, literacies, and STEM, Tucker-Raymond stresses that the book is,\u201creally about how people interact with each other as they learn together, not just as individuals, and how those interactions can support broadening educational spaces in more equitable and inclusive ways.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At BU Wheelock, Tucker-Raymond explores creating and understanding humanizing spaces for learners at the intersection of STEM, literacy, and the media\/arts. He is especially interested in spaces that promote racial equity and critical, compassionate relationships between educators and learners. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eli Tucker-Raymond, BU Wheelock research associate professor of language &amp; literacy, has been awarded a 2020 Outstanding Book Award by the Society of Professors of Education (SPE) for STEM Literacies in Makerspaces: Implications for Learning, Teaching, and Research.
