Can Inclusive STEM High Schools Narrow the STEM Gap for Under-Represented Students?
This week, SRI Education was honored to participate in the first-ever White House Summit on Next Generation High Schools, which included discussion on how to expand science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) opportunities for groups under-represented in these high-growth fields (African Americans, Hispanics, females and students from low-income families). Previous research shows that many students, especially among those…
