Beginning in high school may be too late. If students are not exposed to STEM related activities and instruction in their early school years, they may never have the opportunity to gain skills and interest that allow them to be successful later. If teachers are able to expose students to STEM related curriculum, this exposure could potentially have the ability to spark a greater interest for math and science in students while also motivating them to continue to seek STEM-related opportunities. Clearly, part of the problem is in teacher education. Some K-6 programs are not preparing teacher candidates adequately for STEM content or skills, especially in the area of engineering (DiFrancesca, Lee & McIntyre 2014). Thus, while there is a noticeable disconnect between interest in STEM careers and early exposure to STEM education (Drew, 2015). Implementing these disciplines and practices throughout elementary education programs could result in more exposure for K-6 students.
