Executive Summary

North Carolina has arguably the finest business climate in America. However, the state is

undergoing a critical economic transformation, moving rapidly from a low-skill, low-wage

economy to a high-skill, knowledge-based economy driven by technology and innovation. These

changes demand an adaptable workforce - one with the science, technology, engineering and

mathematics (STEM) skills embedded within the critical 21

Century skills required for

successful citizenship. To maintain North Carolina’s supremacy, future workers must have the

STEM skills leading companies demand and the citizenship the 21

Century now requires for

success.

Fortunately, North Carolina can boast a high number of statewide and local STEM education

initiatives, as well as strong education standards and public and private organizations promoting

education innovation in their communities and regions. No matter their geographic, political, or

economic disposition, North Carolina’s leaders agree that a coordinated, statewide STEM

Education Strategic Plan with clear direction, support and goals is needed to ensure a

workforce that is prepared for the high-skill, high-wage and high-demand jobs of a knowledge-

based and innovation economy.

The plan must be built on a shared vision that leverages public

and private resources in the most effective and efficient manner possible, moving North Carolina

further and faster toward a world-class workforce and sustained economic growth and

development in a global market.

North Carolina is poised to lead the nation with vibrant STEM-based education and economic

systems. It is time for North Carolina to connect the many “islands of excellence” across the

state into a bright future for all its citizens and communities. To build and maintain the world-

class workforce needed to ensure economic prosperity in a global market, North Carolina must

focus on the following three priorities and measure our progress against these strategies:

Priority 1: Increasing our student, educator and institutional STEM Achievement

Strategy: Adopt a set of attributes for STEM schools and programs, aligned with 21

Century Skills, to assist public and private organizations to align, coordinate and

advance STEM skills for all students.

Strategy: Measure a set of student achievement indicators along the education-to-

workforce continuum to guide the current and future implementation of the STEM

Strategy.

Strategy: Implement a designation for STEM Schools and Programs, aligned with the

STEM Attributes, to drive the goals and measures outlined within this STEM Strategic

Plan.

Strategy: Identify high-quality tools and supports – such as rubrics, self-assessments – to

enable schools, programs and businesses to advance consistent understanding and

application of the adopted STEM Attributes.
