15580 Integrate STEAM into the Elementary Classroom Through Picture Books
We know STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) is a hot topic but, just how important is it that we integrate STEM into our classrooms? The short answer is that our world depends on it. According to the Smithsonian STEM Imperative, 2.4 million STEM jobs will go unfilled this year and it is projected to grow by 13% over the next 10 years. As teachers, we have an important role to inspire and teach our students the skills they will need to be successful in an ever-changing world. In this program we will focus on how to integrate content standards as we STEMify our classrooms to enhance our students innovative thinking.
No classes are being offered at this time for this course.
