Overview: Five key findings ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object]
Studying advanced math and science is seen as important for college and future jobs. Note: Question wording in charts may be slightly edited for space. Full question wording is available at  publicagenda.org/pages/math-and-science-ed-2010 . Percentages may not equal 100% due to rounding or the omission of some answer categories.
But only 3 in 10 see a demand for STEM-focused jobs in the current economy. Base: General public
Still, 9 in 10 Americans say studying math and science is useful even for students who don’t pursue STEM careers. Base: General public
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Parents want their child to take more STEM courses in high school. ,[object Object],[object Object]
Americans are receptive to national standards and additional course requirements. Percent of the public who say the following would improve math and science : A lot A little Requiring all students to take four years of math in high school  68 % 22 % Requiring students struggling with math or science to spend extra time to catch up 61 % 32 % Requiring all high school students to take a science class that includes lab work  59 % 31 % Requiring all students to take four years of science in high school  54 % 32 % Requiring all 8th grade students to take algebra  54 % 30 % Establishing a national curriculum in MATH so schools everywhere teach the same topics  53 % 27 % Requiring students to pass challenging tests in math and science in order to graduate  50 % 31 % Establishing a national curriculum in SCIENCE so schools everywhere teach the same topics 48 % 30 % Requiring all high school students to take at least one engineering class  39 % 38 %
There is also broad support for other ways to build awareness and strengthen STEM skills. Note: The full question list from this battery is available in the Full Survey Results at  publicagenda.org/pages/math-and-science-ed-2010 . Percent of the general public who say the following would improve math and science : A lot A little Have local businesses provide internships and other business partnership programs, so high school students can gain practical job skills 71 % 22 % Putting math and science ideas in television, video games and  other media directed towards children 60 % 29 % Attracting better math and science teachers by providing  Full college scholarships to people who major in math or science and  agree to teach these subjects in public school for at least five years 60 % 29 %
[object Object]
Most parents would like to see their local schools spend more money on a variety of STEM education improvements. Percent of parents who say schools should spend more money on: Up-to-date and well-equipped science labs  [secondary school parents] 70 % More equipment for hands-on science learning  [elementary school parents] 69 % Equipment to help students learn important computer and  technology skills  [all parents] 68 % Hiring more teachers who are knowledgeable about teaching math  [all parents] 65 % Hiring more teachers who are knowledgeable about teaching science  [all parents] 62 % Hiring more teachers who are knowledgeable about teaching reading and writing [all parents] 61 %
[object Object]
More parents say their school should be teaching a lot more math and science than in 2006, but a majority still say that “things are fine as is.” *Source: “Reality Check 2006: Are American Parents and Students Ready for More Math and Science?”
About a quarter of all Americans want to see money go to improving math and science, but other reforms are contenders for limited dollars. Base: General public
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Although views have shifted a little, most parents still see behavior issues as more of a problem than low academic standards. Base: Parents of children in grades K-12 *Source: “Reality Check 2006: Are American Parents and Students Ready for More Math and Science?”
[object Object]
Despite receptivity to ramping up STEM education, most still do not see skills like physics  and calculus as essential.
Secondary school parents see applied STEM skills as a higher priority than advanced math and science. ,[object Object]
Elementary school parents see technology and hands-on STEM courses as a higher priority than just math concepts.
And nearly 7 in 10 Americans say science can wait until middle and high school.  Base: General public
Implications for STEM leaders and educators. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
