| Abstract | This summary is the first in a series of research briefs on student skills for the future. It provides highlights from the full research report, "Initial Findings Report: Student Skills for the Future, Spring 2022. A Landscape Analysis from the Jacksonville Public Education Fund" (ED620417). Given the rate of technological advancement, the role of Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) training in creating globally competitive workers, and the unprecedented shift to hybrid and remote learning across the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important to visit the Duval County landscape and see what exists in the landscape for STEM and Career Technical Education (CTE) preparation for all students, but particularly students from historically marginalized backgrounds. The Jacksonville Public Education Fund (JPEF) drew on previous research from various organizations including University of North Florida (UNF) and STEM2Hub in order to identify community stakeholders who could help answer the question: What skills do students need to succeed in the 21st century workforce? JPEF conducted interviews and focus groups with educators and a variety of employers (N=30) to compare their perspectives on what skills students need to be successful in the workforce and what challenges they face reaching those needs. JPEF also critically examined the offerings and any publicly available data of 40+ STEM and CTE programs available in Duval County to answer the question: What opportunities exist for Duval County students to develop interest and skills in STEM and CTE fields? Overall, partnerships between the Duval County School district and major university, business, and community leaders have deepened significantly over the past 5 years, as is evidenced by the increase in STEM, computer science, and CTE courses offered and enrollment in those courses. In school partners and employers agree on challenges still facing student preparation for careers in Duval County, related to communication and critical thinking skills. (ERIC). |
