1. The table shows the distribution of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) students according to academic performance using a grading scale. Out of 120 students, the majority (85%) received an outstanding grade of 90-100, while a small percentage received very satisfactory (7.5%) or satisfactory (7.5%) grades. No students received fairly satisfactory or did not meet expectation grades.
2. "A study by Wenglinsky (2005) found that students who attended schools with a higher proportion of teachers with advanced degrees in science, mathematics, or computer science tended to score higher on standardized tests in those subjects at the eighth-grade level." (Howard, 2018, p. 30)
3. The data in the table suggests that the majority of STEM students are performing at an outstanding level, which is a positive indicator of their academic abilities and potential for future success. It could also suggest that the teaching and learning strategies used in STEM education are effective in producing high-achieving students. However, it is important to note that the sample size in this table is limited, and it is unclear if this distribution applies to all STEM students in a larger population.
