The Research
US Department of Labor projects by 2014, there will be more than 2 million job openings in STEM fields.
The number of US students graduating with degrees in STEM is declining.

The ResearchFewer that 15% of undergraduates pursue degrees in science or engineering compared to 30% in India and 40% in China.•5% computer/information systems•4% in engineering/engineering technologies•3% in biological/agricultural sciences•Less than 1% in physical science and mathematics

The ResearchWho enters STEM fields?•Men outnumber women 3 to 1•47% of Asian/Pacific Islanders to 19% of all other racial groups
– No measurable difference among White, Black and Hispanic
•34% of foreign students to 22% of US born•Higher % from families in the top 25% income bracket or at least had some college experience

The Research
Higher % of students:•Took trigonometry, pre-calculus, and calculus in high school•Earned GPA of B or higher•Had scores on college entrance exams in the highest quarter

The Research
Students staying in a STEM field of study•37% completed a degree or certificate•55% left STEM fields
– Switched to non-STEM area– Left post-secondary education without
earning any credentials

GEAR
www.gearrobotics.org
GEAR was created in order to foster interest among school aged (mainly primary schools) students in the fields of engineering and science. More importantly we want to show our youth that these fields can be a fun and rewarding career option.

Project Based Learning• To develop real-world problem solving skills by
challenging students with open-ended projects• The goal is to build “functional integrated
knowledge” instead of just memorization of facts• Introduction of 21st Century Skills
– Communication and presentation skills– Organization and time management skills– Research and inquiry skills– Self assessment and reflection skills– Group participation and leadership skills
