STEAM and the Gifted Learner presentation
This document discusses STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) education and resources for gifted learners. It promotes developing talent in technology and engineering at all grade levels through innovative math, science, and engineering programs and materials. Students should work with peers of similar interests and abilities, and receive support and mentoring from community stakeholders and experts in STEM fields. Integrating art can increase rigor, problem-solving, motivation, and communication skills for gifted students. The document provides various resources and websites related to STEAM topics like catapults, problem-based learning, and digital storytelling to help create hands-on learning kits. It also includes the Common Core standards for integrating visual and multimedia elements into presentations

Dr Petros Lameras - Stipulating innovation in stem learning and teaching with...Inspiring Science Education
Dr Petros Lameras of the Serious Games Institute (SGI) at Coventry University (UK) was keynote speaker at the recent eMadrid network summit in Spain, on 20 May. With a presentation entitled "Stipulating innovation in stem learning and teaching with the use of serious games", he presented ISE and and tested SimAULA with some students and teachers that had a go and play with it.
The presentation provided an overview of the SGI as a centre of excellence in serious games applied research in relation to the overarching applied research strands and the serious games that have been developed focusing on education, health and environment. Special emphasis was given on serious games for STEM learning and teaching (e.g.: SimAULA) stipulating the emergence of games that aim to enhance teachers and student skills, competencies and learning outcomes in formal and informal learning settings.
A discussion and reflection session followed, about games and other technology-based learning interventions for co-design, co-creation, measurement, analysis and visualisation of deeper learning processes, strategies, methods and knowledge forms enacted in games.

This document summarizes a case study conducted with Brazilian universities and schools on using open educational resources to develop responsible research and innovation inquiry skills. Over 1,400 learners coordinated by 36 educators from 3 Brazilian states participated in a month-long virtual ethnography. Activities included questionnaires, Google Hangouts, social media posts, videos, photos, and maps. Outcomes included workshops, video clips, posters, exhibitions, games, new OERs, illustrations, and concept maps. The study found that a GM food decision-making lesson was easily integrated into the Brazilian curriculum and helped participants develop informed opinions shared through various mediums. Collaborative planning and digital technologies were useful for promoting scientific and digital literacies at a large scale

1) The document discusses a collaborative research project between the Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) and external researchers to analyze high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) in Uganda and improve tax compliance among this group.
2) It finds there are many potential HNWIs in various economic sectors in Uganda who have high incomes but pay little in personal income taxes. These include individuals in finance, real estate, professional services, and public sector roles.
3) While Uganda has legal and administrative structures like anti-avoidance rules and a penalty regime to tax HNWIs, there are still weaknesses like low tax collection overall, a large informal sector, and political influences that enable non-compliance among elite taxpayers.Insight from Google: Vietnam Digital landscape 2016
This document discusses insights from a report on digital marketing in Vietnam. It summarizes several sections of the report, including on the online and multiscreen world, smart shoppers, local shoppers, international shoppers, smart viewers, and digital moms.

Understanding the Basics of STEM Education
This document discusses STEM education, which integrates science, technology, engineering, and mathematics into the classroom. It was started in 2001 by the National Science Foundation to revolutionize math and science teaching. STEM aims to make classrooms more problem-solving and discovery-based rather than teacher-centered. It combines the four disciplines so they are not taught independently. Many STEM programs use tools like CAD and animation in high school. Supporters say STEM benefits all students by developing skills like critical thinking, teamwork, and innovation needed for future careers. However, some criticize that it may not teach all students equally. The document emphasizes the importance of STEM in preparing students for jobs of the future and keeping the U.

The University of Redlands received a $695,151 grant from the National Science Foundation, the largest grant ever received from NSF by the university. The two-year grant will fund the development of a program to improve elementary students' spatial thinking and computational skills through hands-on activities, in order to better prepare them for STEM courses and careers. The program aims to help underrepresented groups by addressing skills that have been shown to vary by gender and socioeconomic factors. It will be tested in local elementary classrooms and refine materials based on assessment data to establish effective strategies for diverse students.
Stem Education
STEM education consists of a curriculum based on the idea of educating students in four specific disciplines — science, technology, engineering and mathematics — in an integrated, interdisciplinary approach to learning that provides hands-on and relevant learning experiences for students. STEM education is vital to Mitchell County because the majority of industry and business in our area need and require employees with STEM skills.
