  • This paper begins by identifying three main reasons why many of the more STEM-Talented students at our universities do notconsider enrolling in STEM teacher education programs. Then based on a review of the literature, a framework for addressing thisdilemma is presented and discussed. This framework consists of a set of three principles together with eleven strategies for theoperationalization of these principles. During the presentation of the framework, the roles of governments and of universities at theinstitutional, faculty/division and departmental levels in the operationalization of the framework are examined.
