This tool measures individual readiness to integrate equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) practices within post-secondary STEM environments, offering a practical framework for institutional transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With undergraduate degrees spanning both arts and sciences, Candice brings a distinctive cross-disciplinary perspective to science communication, institutional design, and behavioural science. She has co-led the creation of multiple EDI resources for STEM, contributed to Indigenous-led Collaborative Indigenous Learning Bundles for the Sciences, and developed prize-winning educational songs, animations, and interactive tools. Her innovative approach bridges rigorous quantitative data analysis with creative communication strategies, making complex concepts accessible and actionable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through these efforts, Candice drives systems-level change in science education and mental health support, emphasizing inclusive design that resonates across diverse learner communities. Her work aligns directly with EDIT-STEM\u2019s mission by embedding EDI principles into the fabric of interactive learning technologies and research practices.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"author":39,"featured_media":71,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"cu_people_first_name":"Candice","cu_people_last_name":"Harris","cu_people_initials":"CH","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_people_type":[],"cu_people_expertise":[],"class_list":["post-69","cu_people","type-cu_people","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"cu_people_job_title":"Graduate Student in Neuroscience at Carleton University","cu_people_degree":"","cu_building":"","cu_people_office_num":"","cu_people_pronoun":"She\/They","cu_people_designation":"","cu_people_email":"","cu_people_phone":"","cu_people_phone_ext":"","cu_people_linkedin":"","cu_people_bluesky":"","cu_people_twitter":"","cu_people_instagram":"","cu_people_facebook":"","cu_people_website":"","cu_people_orcid":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/69","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_people"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/39"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/69\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":270,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people\/69\/revisions\/270"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/71"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_people_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people_type?post=69"},{"taxonomy":"cu_people_expertise","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/edit-stem\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_people_expertise?post=69"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
