| Abstract | STEM--science, technology, engineering, and mathematics--has become a fixture of the education debate, and much effort already has been put toward improving student performance. Yet troubling statistics persist: On the latest round of testing for the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), only 40 percent of fourth graders nationwide were found to be proficient in math, and students at all grade levels were especially weak in inquiry-based science. Business leaders, like education leaders, are acutely aware of what this could mean for the future of the country: Young people might be unprepared for rewarding jobs and the demands of informed citizenship, businesses may not find the talent they need to keep innovating, and the economy may stagnate with too little innovation. In this article, the author discusses how business leaders are partnering with elementary schools to help increase students' interest and achievement in STEM. (ERIC). |
