摘要:
Guided by Strayhorn's sense of belonging model and tenets from intersectionality by Crenshaw, this study uses interpretive phenomenological design and finds four major themes that describe Latina English learners' lived experiences in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and how those experiences and their intersectional identities help to shape their sense of belonging in undergraduate STEM programs: (a) academic challenges, (b) relationship with STEM faculty, (c) relationship with peers, and (d) campus environment and STEM culture. Discussions and implications are presented.
