INTRODUCTION TO STEM STRAND


STEM is one of the most discussed topics in education. But, exactly, what is STEM?




STEM is a stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
But there's more to it than that.

These four fields all share an emphasis on innovation, problem-solving, and critical thinking. Together, they make up a popular and fast-growing industry.


So, what's the big deal about STEM? STEM education goes beyond test performance and focuses on developing higher level thinking skills by connecting classroom learning to real-world applications. STEM emphasizes collaboration, communication, research, problem solving, critical thinking, and creativity, all of which are skills that students need to be successful in today's world, regardless of their interests or career goals. STEM is a direct reaction to the realization that our future will be built on our ability to innovate, invent, and solve creative problems.

STEM has evolved into a distinct approach to teaching and learning, one that is centered on individual students' learning styles and interests. As a result, STEM education has something to offer each and every student. Unlike traditional education experiences, which focus on individual subject areas, STEM education emphasizes technology and integrates subjects in ways that connect and relate disciplines.
