Federal STEM Tool 101
Facilitator: Chanda Jefferson
Learn with an Albert Einstein Distinguished Educator as she shares lessons, applications, and innovative ideas in STEM that the federal government has available for education. She will share stories of successful lessons designed around STEM that integrate engagement for all students. Participants will be able to walk away with usable strategies and information to help them facilitate and advocate for diverse and inclusive STEM/STEAM programs at their school, district, or organization. Some of the topics will discuss makerspace activities, coding, design thinking, and using primary sources with students throughout elementary, middle, and high school. She will also provide suggestions to help educators implement these ideas for hybrid or distance learning models as well.
