Welcome to the Diversity in Education Archive! This website has two searchable databases that contain detailed summaries of research about education.  The K-12 Integration, Desegregation, and Segregation Archive (below on the left), was initially called the Spivack Archive and the K-16 STEM Archive (below on the right). The STEM for the People Archive is an outgrowth of the K-16 STEM Archive.

The STEM for the People Archive offers the general public, parents, students, educators, and others user-friendly information geared to various specific audiences.
