The word diversity has its origin in the Latin word “diversitas”, which means “variety” or even “to look in different directions”. An undeniable ethical value, diversity signals a possibility of growth from divergence, which is the ability to recognize and value the difference in others. In this sense, when differences are treated with respect, we have an opportunity for dialogue and the construction of pluralistic perspectives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In education, diversity plays an important social function: if we recognize knowledge from different cultures, territories, genders and social contexts, the act of learning becomes more significant for everyone who is involved in the project: educators, students and families. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within STEM projects<\/a> (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), diversity is a valuable resource for solving real problems. It not only influences the choice of the research subject but also how a prototype is interpreted, developed and implemented, whether physical or representational. Groups made up of students with different trajectories can analyze a situation from a variety of angles, creating multifaceted and more empathetic resolutions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, right from the moment of starting the bibliographical research, it is important to look for differentiated sources, paying attention to diversity in terms of gender, race, social and geographical context, bringing other perspectives on STEM topics. The inclusion of traditional knowledge, such as that provided by indigenous populations or quilombolas, also enhances the project, particularly if the prototype developed affects their territories. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two well-known methodologies for including diversity in the learning process are: Project Based Learning<\/em><\/a> (PBL) and Design Thinking<\/em><\/a>. Both encourage creative<\/a> thinking, student leadership and the creation of collaborative and receptive work environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to what can be achieved inside the classroom, the dissemination of STEM projects constructed out of diversity ends up being a great strategy for increasing the visibility of this theme. Pitches<\/em>, talking circles and presentations about the project not only motivate a variety of students to take part in technology projects, but also expand the number of spaces for exchanges in relation to the theme. As a result, careers in the sciences become a possibility for more people, and society as a whole is the beneficiary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
