Journal 9- Hiten


A question that I had was from the scientist Dr. Dorthy Warburbon and her son Bob Warburton, the question I had was how many women are there in the science field. And with the research i found out that there are not that many in the science filed at all, facts show that "Women make up half of the total U.S. college-educated workforce, but only 29% of the science workforce.”. But there are some promising signs. More female students are taking classes like pre-calculus and advanced biology during high school than male students, according to the National Girls Collaborative Projects,​ ​and women are earning a near-equal proportion of bachelor's degrees in STEM fields.

The them that I saw a lot was loving what you do. And I can kind of relate because when I am fix the car or trying to figure out whats wrong with it, I just get in that zone and get lost in what i am doing, not knowing whats going around me or that the time is just flying by. in the book they explain that when you are going something that you love it doesn't feel like a job and you are more willing to go to work instead of hating everyday that you have to go to work.

One of the words that I learned about is obstetricians and it means someone who is a physician or surgeon qualified to practice in obstetrics. I found this word interesting because it a word that i have never heard of.
