Women and Minorities in Technology: With Focus on Local Schools
Abstract
This is an ongoing project that will take several years to complete. The core of this study is to look at four local junior and senior high schools and find out the factors that affect female and minority groups in choosing their future education and career path. One way to accomplish this task, is to look at the guidance the students get from their counselors, existing programs in schools, and the way students’ interests change as they move on to higher grades. The lack of females and minorities going to scientific and technological fields requires more proactive attention nation wide.
