Abstract: The report reviewed national and international literature and was conducted by a team of researchers lead by Professor Russell Tytler of Deakin University. Others who contributed included eminent UK researcher Prof Jonathon Osborne of Kings College, London, Dr Anthony Tomei from the UK Nuffield Foundation, Associate Professor Helen Forgasz from Monash University and Dr Gaye Williams from Deakin University. The review focuses on the primary to secondary school transition period as previous research had found that the persistent and progressive decline in positive attitudes toward, and interest in, school science and maths subjects is most pronounced during this transition.
This report is a comprehensive literature review of the factors influencing students? subject and career choices in the area of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). The review focuses on the primary to secondary school transition period.
