Just to imagine yourself as an adult is a challenge for teens. If you've never seen women scientists and inventors mentioned in your textbooks, it's a bigger stretch to picture yourself studying a STEM field and becoming an engineer or researcher. The books I've selected to add to my classroom library are engaging stories of women who led the way for future generations of girls. The magazines have fascinating articles about cutting-edge research complemented with hands-on activities, which would be perfect for my engineering class. The subscription upends student ideas about science being a dry subject with dynamic, exciting pieces on current breakthroughs.
