, causality binds together reasoning processes that are commonto all STEM disciplines, including making predictions, drawing implications, making inferences,and articulating explanations.PredictionsReasoning from a description of a condition or set of conditions or states of an event to thepossible effect(s) that may result from those states is called prediction. Prediction assumes amore or less probabilistic relationship between causal antecedent(s) and effect(s) because apotentially large number of causal relationships can participate in the occurrence of the effect.The two primary functions of prediction are forecasting an event (e.g., economic ormeteorological forecasting) and testing of hypotheses to confirm or refute scientific

. Employment growth willbe driven by increasing demand for healthcare and social assistance because of an agingpopulation and longer life expectancies. Employment in administrative support and wastemanagement and remediation services is projected to grow by 31 percent and add 2.5million new jobs to the economy by 2014. Service industries have accounted for almostall U.S. job growth since the 1960’s. Wages in the service sector overall have risen fasterthan wages in most other sectors.The Bureau of Labor Statistics has the most complete information concerning IE and IETemployment. Analysis of their data is somewhat limited due to the lack of informationabout job titles or degree types. Another gap in the data concerns the other job titles thatIEs and

Upper class students felt recognized by their professors,and the participants agreed that the professors perceived them as capable, good students, andresponsible. This change in perception gave confidence to students, as they explained: …as I entered directly to the major [upper class], that is to move from the Annex to the Principal [building], it was different, the professors recognized that we [women] were good students --it was a change in mentality (Georgina).
