"Changing the Equation" Issues States' STEM Vital Signs Report

The national "Changing the Equation" initiative recently released a states' STEM Vital Signs report, giving quick statistics on the status of STEM learning in every state in the nation, as well as general trends.  By rolling over the map of California, one can view or download a full report with statistics for our state.  Interestingly, among those statistics, which evidence persistent achievement gaps and lower performance than the national averages in a variety of categories, California does show well-respected math standards, and higher rates of college attendance and graduation, including within STEM fields.  http://www.changetheequation.org/why/stem-education-in-your-state/
