Catalyzing Change in STEM Teaching: Lessons from the Helmsley Charitable Trust’s Postsecondary Strategy

This brief shares what we learned in testing the Helmsley Charitable Trust’s hypothesis that investing in networks of postsecondary institutions is an effective systems change strategy.

As the STEM Active Learning Networks evaluation and learning partner, Equal Measure is tracking the impact of The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust’s (Helmsley) postsecondary grantmaking on faculty, departmental, and institutional change across networks.

This Issue Brief is based on data gathered through semi-annual interviews with network leads, observations from investment-wide and individual network convenings, and findings from grantee and network member focus groups.
