Drew (2011) writes "...there are points when [students] may become less likely to study math and science - points where they may be lost forever from the STEM pipeline.... We must make mathematics and science available and attractive to every student in middle and high schools" (p. 138).
Reflect on the following questions as you formulate a substantive, 4-5 paragraph response:
1. Reflect on your own journey.
2. Did your elementary teachers engage you in STEM subjects, or did they only hope you would memorize a series of facts, figures, and formulas? Explain.
3. How did STEM education in middle and high school support or hinder your interest in and pursuit of STEM subjects in college?
4. What are you currently doing in your classroom to support (or hinder) student interest in STEM careers so that they advance (or don't) down the "STEM pipeline"?
Support your statements with evidence from the required studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.
