Recording of the closing featured session, The Girls’ Index™: Girls & STEM Report, is included!

 

Dr. Lisa Hinkelman dove into the data and insights from The Girls’ Index™ — the first-ever, large-scale national survey designed to develop a deeper understanding of teen girls' thoughts, experiences, behaviors, and attitudes throughout the U.S. The ROX Institute for Research & Training explores what girls want us to know about what it’s like being a girl today. What do they want and need from the adults in their lives? What challenges do girls face in school and relationships, and how can adults support girls’ dreams and aspirations more effectively?

 

The Girls' Index™: Girls & STEM Report is based on data from over 17,500 girls in grades 5-12 across the U.S. and highlights both the growing interest in STEM careers among girls and the persistent challenges they face, particularly around confidence and self-efficacy in math and science. The findings underscore the urgent need for targeted efforts to help girls realize their full potential in STEM fields.

 

Ruling Our eXperiences (ROX) began in 2006 as a research study at The Ohio State University where Founder and CEO Dr. Lisa Hinkelman spent her career training graduate students in counselor education. As a licensed counselor working with adults and students in school settings, Dr. Hinkelman recognized that the issues facing female students mirrored the experiences of the adult women she was working with in counseling. This connection sparked a research agenda that sought to understand the challenges facing girls and what interventions existed to help them navigate these challenges.

 

Register for all recordings by Friday, December 20 for just $25.
