摘要

Since the 1950s, there have been two large movements for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, one occurring after the Sputnik orbit in the late 1950s and the most recent initiated in part by the report Rising above the Gathering Storm (National Academy of Sciences, National Academy of Engineering, & Institute of Medicine, 2007). The most recent call for STEM education has been propagated across multiple National Research Council Reports (NRC, 2013, 2014, 2015) and calls by the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (2010). Although these STEM education movements have plenty of similarities, each movement is different in its focus on the purpose of STEM education. The STEM movement in the 1960s was focused on creating career scientists and mathematicians, and funding from this movement created of curriculum efforts solely for high-performing students. The current STEM movement has distinguished itself by setting goals to be more inclusive, focusing mainly on STEM literacy for all students. All citizens should be able to possess skills and knowledge in STEM, rather than STEM being a subject accessible only to those who want to pursue STEM as a career. In the past, STEM schools usually were selective schools, denying admission to students who might need additional support. The current trend of STEM education being all-embracing can be seen in the creation of many new inclusive STEM schools, a type of school that focuses on rigorous STEM education for any student who wants to attend regardless of prior academic achievement. It can be argued that the current STEM education movement can nudge the needle of social equity in the United States.
