2. Technological literacy is a key component of
student success in the 21st Century. Fluency
in science and mathematics forms a basis for
critical thinking and an understanding of our
world.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and
Mathematics) seeks to incorporate practical,
hands-on engineering and technology
experiences into the traditional subjects of
science and math. STEM promotes
discovery, exploration, higher-level thinking,
collaboration and problem solving both
inside and outside the classroom.
Project-Based Learning. Discovery Education
tools, website resources like Khan Academy,
and more. Using technology engineering and
math apply beyond the classroom with
these type of hands-on opportunities
include Robotics, Chess Club, Math Games,
and more.
