Redefined: The Complexity of STEM Persistence -- The Significance of Interest and Choice -- High School to College: Student Preparation and Transition -- Learning Experiences in Gateway Courses and their Consequences -- Learning Experiences throughout STEM Majors -- Teaching Practices: Observed and Evaluated -- The Processes of Switching and Relocation -- Factors Beyond College that Shape Career Choices -- What Enables Persistence? -- Summary and Conclusions. 330 $aTalking about Leaving Revisited discusses findings from a five-year study that explores the extent, nature, and contributory causes of field-switching both from and among ?STEM? majors, and what enables persistence to graduation. The book reflects on what has and has not changed since publication of Talking about Leaving: Why Undergraduates Leave the Sciences (Elaine Seymour & Nancy M. Hewitt, Westview Press, 1997). With the editors? guidance, the authors of each chapter collaborate to address key questions, drawing on findings from each related study source: national and institutional data, interviews with faculty and students, structured observations and student assessments of teaching methods in STEM gateway courses. Pitched to a wide audience, engaging in style, and richly illustrated in the interviewees? own words, this book affords the most comprehensive explanatory account to date of persistence, relocation and loss in undergraduate sciences. Comprehensively addresses the causes of loss from undergraduate STEM majors?an issue of ongoing national concern. Presents critical research relevant for nationwide STEM education reform efforts. Explores the reasons why talented undergraduates abandon STEM majors. Dispels popular causal myths about why students choose to leave STEM majors. 606 $aHigher education 606 $aEducational sociology 606 $aEducational psychology 606 $aEducation?Psychology 606 $aScience education 606 $aMathematics?Study and teaching  606 $aTechnical education 606 $aHigher Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O36000 606 $aSociology of Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O29000 606 $aEducational Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O39000 606 $aScience Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O27000 606 $aMathematics Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O25000 606 $aEngineering/Technology Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O43000 615 0$aHigher education. 615 0$aEducational sociology. 615 0$aEducational psychology. 615 0$aEducation?Psychology. 615 0$aScience education. 615 0$aMathematics?Study and teaching . 615 0$aTechnical education. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aSociology of Education. 615 24$aEducational Psychology. 615 24$aScience Education. 615 24$aMathematics Education. 615 24$aEngineering/Technology Education. 676 $a507.1173 702 $aSeymour$b Elaine$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHunter$b Anne-Barrie$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910364946303321 996 $aTalking about Leaving Revisited$92525684 997 $aUNINA
