Effects of innovative science and mathematics teaching on student attitudes and achievement: A meta-analytic study (2016, unknown): “…employees with a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) background; and the need of science itself to gain public support (e.g., AAAS., 1993; European Commission, 2004; Lacey & Wright, 2009; OECD, 2003, 2008; Rocard, Csermley, Jorde, Walberg-Henriksson, & Hemmo, 2007; WRR, 2013).”
Directionality of the Associations of High School Expectancy-Value, Aspirations, and Attainment (2015, background): “To maintain internationally competitive economies, the U.S. government has recognized the need to encourage tertiary education to meet the demand for highly skilled professionals (Lacey & Wright, 2009).”
The Math Anxiety-Performance Link (2017, background): “Consequently, many countries are interested in enhancing STEM education (BBC, 2013; Lacey & Wright, 2009).”
Why Students Choose STEM Majors (2013, background): “…the 10 fastest growing occupations that require at least a bachelor’s degree will depend on significant math or science training, and many science and engineering occupations are predicted to grow faster than the average rate for all occupations (Lacey & Wright, 2009; National Science Board, 2010).”
STEM Related After-School Program Activities and Associated Outcomes on Student Learning (2013, background): “Studies on cultivating STEM literacy have revealed that the science and mathematics components of STEM have gained prominence in facilitating discovery and innovation in a society when compared to the engineering and technology components (Lantz, 2009).”
Pipeline persistence: Examining the association of educational experiences with earned degrees in STEM among U.S. students (2011, background): “At the same time, the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that by 2018 the combination of newly created jobs and the retirement of baby-boomers will create more than 3 million job openings in STEM (Lacey & Wright, 2009).”
