About the webinar

 

This HP Catalyst event will showcase three projects from across the world (Canada, Russia, and Africa!) that are all about improving STEM+ teaching and learning. The presentations reflect topics that are extremely important -  building multidisciplinary courses, making technology-driven classrooms effective, and preparing educators to teach complex STEM+ subjects.

 

Join us and hear from the passionate project leaders as they share their project plans, innovative ideas, and strategies for overcoming obstacles. This is a great opportunity to pick up new tips and best practices for launching similar projects at your institutions.

  • "Capacity Building of STEM+ Teachers for Effective Delivery of STEM+ Disciplines for the 21st Century" by University of Nigeria, Nsukka

I work with a Youth Learning firm, and we do a great deal of work to support STEM initiatives in schools. What steps do you see as most effective to launch a STEM initiative? How do you organize your school/class/program or project to integrate STEM? Great article thanks.
