New NSF book targets girls' participation in science, technology - eSchool News staff and wire service reports

A new, first-of-its-kind resource from the National Science Foundation (NSF) summarizes the methodology and results of 211 research-based grant projects that aim to increase girls' participation in science, technology, engineering, and math. The book, "New Formulas for America's Workforce: Girls in Science and Engineering," is intended primarily to help educators make science and technology more accessible to girls and young women. But NSF says it also can serve as a resource for educators, parents, and professionals seeking examples of creative ways to explore science and technology with their students in general. http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2003/nsf03207/start.htm
