As the world has radically changed from an industrial society to one driven by automation, workforce opportunities are changing faster than our nation's educational framework can adapt. Underrepresented communities who have been historically impacted by these major shifts in education and economic development require additional support and educational instruction in order to fully prepare themselves to face the current digital society.

Essential Practices for Building STEM Enrichment and College Bridge Programs outlines academic challenges and offers possible solutions for underrepresented minorities seeking access to opportunities in the world's digital economy. Additionally, the book considers the importance of developing institutional leadership, cultivating organizational culture, and building capacity to sustain a vibrant STEM culture at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and minority-serving institutions. Covering a wide range of topics such as gender differences, adaptive learning, and student retention, this reference work is an ideal resource for academicians, instructional designers, curriculum developers, practitioners, scholars, researchers, instructors, and students.
