Program Overview
In this course you will discover how STEM education is impacting learning in K-12 classrooms. You will expand your knowledge of how science, technology, engineering, and math can be taught in exciting, exploratory ways. Unlike traditional math and science lessons, STEM lessons are often open-ended activities where students collaborate to design or develop systems to solve problems with real-life applications. STEM lessons are numerous and readily available, however, not all STEM lessons are created equal. As you grow your knowledge of STEM education through this course, you will be able to select or create high quality STEM lessons. As a culminating activity, you will create a presentation to showcase the benefits of STEM, share a lesson you have prepared and taught, and teach other stakeholders in your community why students should engage in STEM education and how to implement it.
