3. National Endowment for
Science Technology and
the Arts
K-12 Schools
Bring computer science into the
National Curriculum as an
essential discipline.
Use video games and visual
effects at school to draw greater
numbers of young people into
STEM and computer science.
Encourage art-tech crossover
and work-based learning
through school clubs.

if
any,
do
you
think
your
child
will
want
to
pursue?
Among careers tested, the two careers parents most want their child to pursue are
scientist and engineer; overall, half of parents say they would like their child to pursue
a STEM career. On the other hand, parents think their kids are more interested in arts.

Statistics, 6% of jobs in USA are STEM
and 52% of STEM jobs are NIT.
As a group, these jobs are forecast to grow
more than twice as fast as the average for
all occupations in the economy.

They are programmers and content developers with
crossdisciplinary skills. Such skills enhance the quality of
virtual world development and the

70. Recommendation #1: Increase emphasis on evaluating the effectiveness of new learning technologies and
approaches to designing and implementing such systems. Use an adaptive learning approach that integrates real world
problems, data, processes and systems; empirical research and human performance; and instructional design and
delivery. The key is to integrate empirical research into the design and implementation of new modes of learning in order
to inform future selection and variation of learning systems. This requirement is also shared by the US Department of
Education (DOE) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) in its efforts toward educational reform especially
in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (Brazell, et al., Digital Warrior, Fort Hood Battle

disciplinary and multi-industry collaboration to integrate
nano science-, bio science-, information science- and
cognitive science-based research and development (
Tieke, 2005, p.9); converging design, art and science in
the contexts of education and human development
(Tahkokallio and Koivusilta, 2004, p.1); national R&D
policy and urban-rural development establishing
connected regional centers of innovation; partnering with
global high tech markets and industries (Embassy of
Switzerland, Beijing, 2005, p.12); and leading the world in
“Public-Private Partnership” (with efforts dating back to
the year of their independence, 1917) (Tieke, 2005, p.
12-15).

Tuesday, 11 December 2007
Through presentations from academic, industrial and military simulation experts, 43 teachers were introduced
to the world of simulation and its related technologies. As part of the program, the teachers visited the
Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation & Education Conference at the Orange County Convention Center,
were given physics simulation
software to use in their classrooms, and had the opportunity to experience hands-on lessons about the
Modeling, Simulation & Training (MS&T) industry.
