stereotype threats, the malleability of intelligence, and self-affirmations shouldhave a powerful impact in breaking this negative cycle when implemented systematically and asearly as possible in a student’s STEM education.Course Based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs)Participation in undergraduate research promotes confidence, motivation, and ultimately,persistence in STEM. Undergraduate research is a “high-impact practice” [25] with positiveeffects on both student persistence and learning. Large studies show that students with researchexperiences have a stronger intention to pursue a STEM career than students who do notparticipate [26], [27]. Meta-analyses with large student populations also support the conclusionthat student research

Using ecosystem metaphors enablesus to ask questions about the quality of pathways, the availability and flow of resources, and thestructures and processes that create and sustain inequalities. Observing that systems are designedto reproduce themselves, Vanasupa and Schlemer argue that “the apparent problems of lack oflearning and lack of diversity are outcomes of a system functioning as designed rather thansomething ‘going wrong’” [6, pp. 6].
