Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Education Program Implementation in Massachusetts

By Nancy Richardson, Barbara Brauner Berns, and Judith Opert Sandler

This paper is an initial effort to map the organizations involved in STEM education in Massachusetts, to describe what program leaders say are the major challenges involved in implementation, and to list some of their suggestions to bring a strategic focus to STEM implementation. In the process, the paper describes an enhanced role for the involvement of the major research and development organizations that have not played a major role in STEM program implementation in Massachusetts, despite their experience in policy development at the national level.
