Great article to help me think more deeply about STEM education. The myth I've always had about STEM education is that the word science covers a much broader spectrum than technology, engineering, and math, such as the question posed in the article: are social and political sciences considered science? But if you look at it from the point of view of developing competence rather than imparting knowledge, teaching children the scientific way of thinking and the resilience needed behind the learning of science can be beneficial to their careers in any of these fields. Similarly, incorporating art into the system will incorporate the child's orientation towards more competencies such as creativity, etc. STEM education is not only the education of knowledge, it is also the education of competence and thinking method.

LEGO is NOT a toy company 🤯 LEGO Education is a huge part of their educational initiatives that now span across elementary school kids. LEGO is an educational company! ➡️ It may be one of the most aggressive, impactful and quiet change makers in global education. The LEGO Group has successfully created and infact closed an entire STEM learning ecosystem wherein a child begins his learning journey with their physical pieces and moves on to learn more concept with it through the high school. 👩🏫 Infact, there are professional courses being offered to educators to learn more about using LEGO in classrooms. Imagine a school of LEGO lessons, who knows it could be a reality soon 🤩 The company says the lessons are aligned to learning standards, linked to computer skills and core science learning objectives. - sourced from Forbes. #lego #legomindstorms #playbasedlearning #logolearn the LEGO Group LEGO Education
