Description

A large majority of secondary school students fail to reach proficiency in math and science, and many are taught by teachers lacking adequate subject matter knowledge.

When compared to other nations, the math and science achievement of U.S. pupils and the rate of STEM degree attainment appear inconsistent with a nation considered the world leader in scientific innovation.

In a recent international assessment of 15-year old students, the U.S. ranked 28th in math literacy and 24th in science literacy.

Moreover, the U.S. ranks 20th among all nations in the proportion of 24-year olds who earn degrees in natural science or engineering.

This book provides background and context to understand the legislative developments in STEM and examines the federal role in promoting STEM education and policy.
