meriSTEM@NIE Talk Series
Join us for an engaging session on The Epistemic Infrastructure of STEM Hackathons, part of the meriSTEM@NIE Talk Series. This talk, led by Assoc.

Drawing on findings from a three-year study, the session offers valuable insights for STEM educators and researchers interested in applying the concept of epistemic infrastructure to curriculum and event design.
