Not really. More than three fourths of all public school teachers are female, and it was co-organized by the National Center for Women and Information Technology, so it makes sense. Even at the high school level, teachers aren't usually teaching what they have a degree in or have industry experience in, they generally major in education and teach whatever the school needs. A lot of my math/science teachers in high school were just following the book along with the class, especially the younger teachers.
- cwbrandsma 11y agoThis was my school growing up in small-town USA. Town population of 2000, no cities within a 5 hour drive, class of 60 kids. My math teachers typically had math degrees, but the science teachers were usually warm bodies. (no such issue with English, history, or spanish tho, had plenty of those)
