We Rep STEM

Since its last feature in the 11-06-2020 issue of the Scout Report, We Rep STEM launched a series called Faces of STEM profiling role models from groups that are underrepresented in STEM fields. "Science is for everyone." This is the guiding principle of We Rep STEM, a platform "celebrat[ing] STEM minorities, [including] people of colour, professionals with disabilities, members of the LGBTQ community, Indigenous researchers, women of all races, [and] scientists in niche areas of expertise." The site is a useful resource for teachers, as it offers information on inclusivity in STEM fields, highlights upcoming events and programs, profiles diverse STEM superstars, and discusses relevant health topics such as youth wellbeing. At the top of the homepage are the latest articles, as well as a list of the most-read articles on the right side. Scrolling down the home page, readers will find stories grouped by categories such as LGBTQ, At Work, Disabilities, Technology, and Education. The Glossary tab at the top of the page may also be worth scrolling through, as it defines several words and acronyms frequently referenced on the site (for example, "code-switching" and "SciComm"). Readers can also find the platform on Instagram (@werepstem), Twitter (@WeRepSTEM), and YouTube (We Rep STEM).
