Abstract
Charting a Course for Success: America’s Strategy for STEM Education is referred to as a “north star for the STEM community as it charts a course for collective success.” We know that the North Star, Polaris, is nearly stationary in the night sky and thus has been a reliable marker for travelers without a compass for centuries. In the business world “north star” is a term used to represent a company’s purpose and the core value it delivers to customers. In either case, north star means something that is referenced so that your actions take you where you want to go. It is in this way that Charting a Course for Success is intended to guide the collective action of all of us who play a role in STEM education.
