From the ACTE Daily Briefing on 3/1/11: "Education Daily (2/28, Brown) reports, "Out-of-school time programs that focus on getting girls interested in science, technology, engineering and math may play an important role in bolstering the number of women in traditionally male-dominated fields, according to a recent report from the Harvard Family Research Project at the Harvard University Graduate School of Education." However, the study points to a lack of research into best practices and specific outcomes. However, "the findings in this report and others may help support policy and program development to boost STEM achievement among underrepresented groups, specifically girls."
