  Not enough American students want to be engineers, mathematicians or scientists. The Obama Administration wants to change that. (5) The government will invest three billion dollars in the education of young Americans in science, technology, engineering and math. The four areas together are known as STEM. Many jobs in the STEM fields will open in the coming years. The US government’s investment aims to increase the number of Americans who can take those jobs. Yet girls appear far less interested in STEM subjects than boys. Only 25 percent of STEM students are girls. Experts say parents should do more than just buy toys to interest their girls in STEM subjects. (6)They should also provide a good education. (7)At school, girls should participate in projects that require teamwork and creative thinking. Women in scientific and technical jobs are also working to encourage young women to explore STEM. One is Anu Tewary. She studied Applied Physics and worked for technology companies. After she had a daughter, she started Technovation Challenge. Technovation offers girls the opportunity to learn how to start a company and become high-tech entrepreneurs.
