Why So Few? Women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics

The third part of a forum on women and girls in STEM, presenting the AAUW research report "Why So Few? Women in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics." The presenter walked through data on girls' high school performance in math and science, AP exam and standardized test gaps, declared majors, and the transition to college as a tipping point. She stressed that advocacy for girls is "not a zero-sum game" and that the data is meant to create awareness rather than assign blame.
