Family engagement is crucial to student success. We host back to school nights. We host curriculum nights. We host parent-teacher conferences. All good things. Yet, sometimes those events are us “talking at” parents and caregivers. What could recurring family STEM nights do to decrease the “talking at” and increase the “engaging with”? Imagine a series of events that strengthen the home to school connection by empowering parents and caregivers to increase math talk at home. The Utah STEM Action Center makes that possible through these kits! 🔦 #TransformEducation

STEM education – like all education – can open doors and reveal opportunities that people may not have known even existed. STEM education isn’t the path for everyone, but everyone does have a path. When we make STEM opportunities available, we’re giving a great gift: the gift of opportunity to learn, to seek, to explore, and to choose. UScellular celebrates STEM educators and influences today and every day. Find out about the STEM educators who influenced UScellular associates' careers while the company supports future STEM innovators. #usccemp https://bit.ly/3Mxv1t6

Edifying Teachers is pleased to join the Beyond100K national network. Extending the successful '100Kin10' work led by Talia Milgrom-Elcott, Beyond100K unites leading organizations to co-develop and implement solutions that will end the STEM teacher shortage by 2043, especially for those most excluded from STEM opportunities. Beyond100K recently engaged 600 young people, who shared their STEM stories. "They told us that when they felt excluded from STEM, they put aside their STEM dreams. When they belonged, their natural curiosity for STEM could take hold, and they pursued and persisted in STEM through college and beyond. Teachers create classrooms of belonging." Find out more about the 'Uncommission,' the Beyond100K map illustrating key challenges and levers, and the commitments we and our fellow partners have made to being integral to this solution! https://lnkd.in/eQGYcD3e

Space education is crucial for shaping the next generation's understanding of our universe. Through teacher professional development and initiatives like bringing space and STEM education directly into schools, we can uplift communities and inspire a new era of discovery. Learn about the impact Space Foundation and The Petit Family Foundation are bringing through the Space in the Community (SITC) program. ✨ #SpaceEducation #CommunityImpact #STEMLearning https://ow.ly/hIbj50QHit2

In the ever-evolving world of STEM, a movement is growing to break down stereotypes and encourage more girls to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Despite exhibiting similar early performance in math and science, girls or individuals identifying with girlhood or as female often lose interest in these subjects by middle school due to societal norms, according to the National Girls Collaborative Project. At Camps for Curious Minds, our girl-focused summer camps aim to empower girls to confidently explore and enjoy STEM fields, challenging stereotypes and fostering enthusiasm.

join CREATE at UC San Diego for our next biannual STEM in San Diego sessions - the focus for this one is: Binational Efforts. The purpose of this convening will be to collectively explore the current state of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) in the region, identify STEM resources/partners and discuss STEM needs in the greater San Diego area. We hope that by bringing important stakeholders together we can host a cohesive conversation about the importance of approaching STEM in San Diego through a multifaceted lens. STEM is much more than education, it is the fastest growing workforce sector, a booming industry in San Diego and provides ample opportunity for upward mobility - especially among for those from underrepresented backgrounds. As a military town with a robust network of STEM partners and educational institutions - we invite you to come learn about the STEM workforce, local and federal resources and to connect with other regional partners committed to enhancing equitable educational opportunities for all San Diegans. Open to all (STEM and non-STEM). Register at bit.ly/STEMinSD or use the QR code!
