THE PDK POSTER PROJECT - Pamela Davis Kivelson
Using Visual Means To Challenge Stereotypes
http://www.math.sunysb.edu/posterproject/www/index.html
The primary goal of this project is to encourage scientific
literacy, and to promote the public's awareness and
appreciation of science and technology by humanizing the
image of research science and scientists. Its other major
goal is to increase the number of women and girls who choose
to pursue careers related to the physical sciences and
mathematics, and to retain, at the high school and university
levels, women who have already chosen such careers.
