Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is widely visible in education and workforce policies and discussions in the United States (US). However, there is a lack of consensus on what is considered a STEM career. In addition, little is known about how K-12 teachers conceptualize STEM careers and how this information is portrayed to…

Sachisthal, Maien S. M.; Jansen, Brenda R. J.; Dalege, Jonas; Raijmakers, Maartje E. J. – Australian Journal of Education, 2020
Recently, students' interest in science has been conceptualized as a network model: the science interest network model (SINM) in which affective, behavioural and cognitive components interact together; building on science interest being a dynamic relational construct. In the current study, we combine the Australian Programme for International…

Franz-Odendaal, Tamara A.; Blotnicky, Karen; French, Frederick; Joy, Phillip – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2016
To enhance understanding of factors that might improve STEM career participation, we assessed students' self-perceptions of competency and interest in science/math, engagement in STEM activities outside of school, and knowledge of STEM career requirements. We show that the primary positive influencer directing students to a STEM career is high…
