This education psychology research aims to develop and test an online motivation intervention promoting high school students' interest and course-taking in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). The project expects to generate new knowledge of psychological and sociocultural factors (including gender) which affect STEM interest and subject choices, and which influence the effectiveness of a motivation intervention for high school students. Expected outcomes include a scalable intervention that will be effective in replenishing the STEM skills pipeline. Benefits include better information for teachers and policy makers seeking to promote and sustain students' STEM interest, thus motivating them towards STEM pathways.

这项教育心理学研究旨在开发和测试一种在线动机干预，以促进高中生对科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）的兴趣和课程学习。该项目预计将产生心理和社会文化因素（包括性别）的新知识，这些因素影响STEM兴趣和学科选择，并影响高中生动机干预的有效性。预期成果包括可扩展的干预措施，这将有效地补充STEM技能管道。好处包括为教师和政策制定者提供更好的信息，以促进和维持学生对STEM的兴趣，从而激励他们走STEM道路。
