Notes de l'éditeur
- Introduce Background Praise roster of speakers Bringing small business employers into STEM will grow support Simple points to talk about today
- Acknowledge the national groups now engaged because of the work by speakers and people in the room Acknowledge the legislation now before Congress STEM is the future. (Change the Equation) STEM education is an economic imperative. Experts say that technological innovation accounted for almost half of U.S. economic growth over the past 50 years, and almost all of the 30 fastest-growing occupations in the next decade will require at least some background in STEM. STEM literacy has a profound and growing impact on our day-to-day lives. It helps us make critical decisions about our health care, our finances and our retirement. It illuminates the ever more complex issues that govern the future of our democracy, and it reveals to us the beauty and power of the world we inhabit. A literate nation not only reads. It computes, investigates and innovates. Most small business employers do not know about STEM world but they DO know they need skilled workers: In 2009, just 34 percent of U.S. 8th graders were rated proficient or higher in a national math assessment, and more than one in four scored below the basic level. In an international exam given in 2006, U.S. high school students ranked 21st out of 30 industrialized nations in science and 25th in math. Only 43 percent of U.S. high school graduates in 2010 were ready for college work in math and 29 percent were ready in science. Most small business owners are acutely aware of the need to train workers in STEM practices in their own business.
