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.
I agree with you on the theme, a lot of these people who found their callings followed their dream and love everything they do which is inspiring
ReplyDeleteI was wondering the same thing on how many women were scientists.
