Alice Hou is a girl from Texas. She is 16 years old now. She first noticed(注意到) the STEM gender gap(性别差异) when she was in the ninth grade. Forty students from her hometown went to the state science fair that year, but only seven of them were girls.
She decided to do something about this. She set up(创建) a club called Girls in STEM. It helps girls learn more about STEM subjects. Girls can try some fun activities that can raise(激发) their interest in STEM. They can also talk to each other about studying these subjects.
The club started with seven girls at Hou's school. But now it has 45! Other schools have also started their own Girls in STEM clubs.
