Helping girls discover science, engineering, and technology
From highschool to college girls take less technology classes that can involve math and science. Are girls growing up to be included in tomorrow's world? Are they trying today - to catch up with the HIGH TECHNOLOGY WORLD?
Research suggests that there has been an increased demand for work-related adult education, resulting from changes in the labor market, technology, and management practices. Among participants, women were more likely than men to report taking formal work-related courses to learn completely new skills or knowledge (80 percent vs. 73 percent, respectively).
Helping girls discover science, engineering, and technology from birth until they have conquered it.
Government data show that girls fall behind boys in math and science as they progress through school.
In the fourth grade both boys and girls like math and science.
Girls fall behind boys in math and science after fourth grade, according to the National Center for Education Statistics.
Why?
Today, only one-fifth of engineering majors are women. The numbers show it. We need to work harder to encourage girls to enjoy science & math just like the boys.
Girls need to grow up and be able to balance their checkbooks and earn more.
This is serious. Engineers make 50 times more than a waitress does.
