G3
Have you read Why So Few? by the American Association of University Women? The document summarizes eight major gender equity studies of the past decade exploring the reason why so few females choose careers in STEM areas. Part of the problem may be that young women are not exposed to STEM education and career opportunities in high school. You can correct that by enhancing guidance from counselors and teachers with the G3: Guides to Goals after Graduation I-STEM Edition. It's a colorful and accessible guide to options for students in the sector, including why girls should consider careers in STEM and personal profiles of female role models in the STEM professions. The guide also presents women in nontraditional careers. The premiere G3 Guide is a tool that CTE educators, guidance professionals, academic educators, administrators, media specialists, and other educators can use to counsel students in grades 9 to 14 about their goals after graduation.
