During the last two decades substantial efforthas been expended towards reconciling developing students with what can be broadly defined asSTEM identities. Considerable recent research broadly on STEM identities [e.g. 3-21], includingseparate considerations of science, engineering and math identities, has focused on the identitiesof groups and intersectionalities underrepresented in STEM disciplines and careers. But, someresearch also suggests that merely inserting a STEM label, e.g. science or scientist, into adiscussion unleashes implicit biases of gender, race and ethnicity in middle school children [14].Surveys to assess self-efficacy and
