- #5 INCEPTION OF TASKFORCE In the summer of 2011, with full support of Dave Stafford, then COO at Michelin Americas Research Company (ARC), Michelin Challenge Education (MCE) and the Michelin African-American Network (AAN) teamed up to plan an event focused on education. A SWOT analysis identified STEM Education as a task force focus. Over 100 attendees from 25 upstate organizations came together on 11/14/11 to listen, learn and suggest ideas to move STEM Education forward. On 12/14/11, more than 30 persons returned to create an action proposal. Key actions identified were: 1) Create a broad based steering committee 2) Develop a STEM strategic plan 3) Animate a “STEAM” program for the middle school. 4) Communicate to the community Task Force Meeting 1 (1) Asset Mapping (STEM Inventory) (2) Strategy Development (How do we fill the gaps) (3) Middle School Program (Earlier Investment) (4) Transition Specification(Create Sustainable Alliance) Collaborative STEM Asset Mapping Volunteer and Outreach Coordination STEM Investment STEM Network Facilitation Upstate STEM Collaboratve Priorites
