US ED "Condition of Education" Report Shows Increased STEM Enrollment

The "Condition of Education" report released by the US Department of Education reveals that more high school students are enrolling in STEM courses.  Despite the increased participation, student performance on standardized NAEP national math and reading assessments has remained fairly constant, with only 1% of high school seniors reaching the highest achievement level in science in 2009.  In addition, numbers of students seeking on-line education opportunities have approximately quintupled in the last decade.  http://www.startribune.com/nation/153408985.html  To view the report, visit http://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/
