"For a long time, we
heard from educators, 'Well, we can't find any girls who WANT to be welders'-
but now, there's an increased perception that supporting female students in
male-dominated careers is a much bigger deal, and there are resources
available that can give all students a better ability to explore and pursue
their interests. IWITTS
materials like the STEM bibliography and Outreach Kit are a huge part of the
resources we can offer to districts to help them serve their students.
It's not just about Perkins compliance anymore."

About the STEM Resources for Instructors to Help Women and
Girls: Annotated Bibliography
It's not that easy to find off-the-shelf materials for recruiting
and retaining women and girls in STEM, especially free resources. As a
busy educator, you just don't have the time to spend hours doing internet
research on classroom activities that will appeal to female learning styles, or
on identifying female role models and associations.
That's why we created a
bibliography that does this research for you. The best part is it's a
downloadable book with clickable hotlinks that bring you directly to the
websites for these primarily free resources.
The STEM Bibliography
includes links to:
- Free
videos with female role models in trades, technology and science careers
- Online
resources for finding female role models and e-mentors
- Sample
curriculum and tools for teaching to female learning styles
- Websites
designed for girls and women interested in trades and technology
- Out-of-school
and summer programs for girls in STEM
- Online
communities for girls, women and educators in STEM
- How
to find gender-segregated occupational data in your state
Sample Entries:
Each entry in the bibliography
includes a link to the online resource, a quick summary of what you'll find if
you follow the link, and helpful categories such as school level, program area,
and audience.
