  As a past president of the National Academy of Engineering put it, "A
  consequence of lack of diversity...[is that] we pay an opportunity cost, a
  cost in designs not thought of, in solutions not produced." Thus, in an
  effort to increase the diversity of the Science, Technology, Engineering and
  Mathematics (STEM) workforce, STEM Equity Pipeline was developed. The
  "Online Resources" section of their website offers visitors a wide variety
  of resources, including "pamphlets/brochures", "posters", "scholarships" and
  "videos". The "Curriculum" resource is particularly rich and it offers over
  50 websites that contain single activities, whole lesson plans or hands-on
  explorations. Some of the titles visitors might find valuable are "Some
  Disassembly Required", which employs reverse engineering (or taking things
  apart) to learn how they work, "Teaching Tool for Introductory Programming
  Concepts", to teach students computer programming in a 3D environment, and
  "Home Science Adventures", science lessons and plans for home- schoolers.
