Book ID/图书代码： 11724014B70875

English Summary/英文概要： Many jobs of the future will involve science, technology, engineering, and math, but how can we expect our students to go into careers as mechanical engineers, environmental scientists, or computer programmers when they’ve never met the people who have these jobs? Students might not even realize that they have career options in STEM fields. Introduce your students to the numerous STEM careers available by connecting them to actual STEM professionals who can act as role models and career mentors, showing students how their school work applies to the world and their future job opportunities.

Discover how to make these connections using technology such as videoconferencing and web 2.0 tools. In Connecting Students to STEM, author Camille Cole shows you ways to find STEM professionals around the world who are willing to interact with your students. She explains how to set up programs that give students the opportunity to engage in real-world learning experiences and how to tap into current programs. Through this authentic engagement your students will find their STEM education to be more rewarding and relevant to their lives, leading many to develop an interest in STEM careers.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 未来的许多职业都会涉及到STEM，即科学、技术、工程、数学，但是如果我们的学生从来没有机会接触机械工程师、环境科学家、或者计算机程序员，我们又如何指望学生将来能去从事这些职业呢？学生们可能从来都没有意识到自己可以从事STEM的相关职业。让你的学生认识STEM领域的专家，作为他们的榜样和职业导师，让学生知道他们在学校学到的东西是如何运用到未来的工作中，这才能够使他们真正地了解林林总总的STEM行业。

在《让学生与STEM职业接轨》一书中，作者卡密尔·科尔会教授读者利用视频会议和其他一些网络2.0工具建立与STEM职业的联系，认识全世界的STEM领域并且愿意帮助学生的专家。卡密尔解释了如何建立让学生有机会参与现实社会工作的项目，以及如何让他们加入现有的项目。

通过这本书，学生们会发现他们接受的STEM教育是有价值的，也是贴近生活的，从而能使他们对STEM相关职业产生兴趣。（XAT）

Awards/获奖情况：许多想要尝试改变的老师都必须读一读这本书。《让学生与STEM职业接轨》挑战了学校现在所面临的现状。科尔罗列了许多可行的课程战略，还提供了许多线上资源供读者查询，科尔用全新的视野告诉我们，“为什么不呢？我们还在等什么呢？”

This is a must-have for any teacher seriously trying to make a difference. It challenges the status quo of fear that stops school boards and administrators from using the power of the technological world that their students already live in outside of the classroom. Cole lays out possible course strategies, provides numerous lists of online sources for more info, and then points at these new horizons and says, "Why not? What are we waiting for?".
