Dr. Robin Ellwood moved from lecture to hands-on STEM with her eighth graders and shows us how. Robin’s students designed a remote underwater vehicle (ROV) that went to Antarctica. She was intimidated when she started thinking about it. But she learned it with the kids as she went. What blows my mind is that Robin […] Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa)

Using movies to support lesson plans can help teachers relay STEM concepts to students while kids relate to the entertainment aspects of watching a film. Consider using films that teach STEM concepts in the classroom to engage students while connecting these movies to meaningful, informative lessons. Via John Evans

"As parents we many times feel overwhelmed with all the advertisements and options for buying young kids the best presents. How can you find something that will be fun for kids, while helping them grow in educational and productive ways? As the father of a new baby girl, I’ve realized how difficult these questions can be. Thoughtful research can make all the difference. STEM toys are toys related to the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. As technology advances rapidly, knowledge of related topics will become more and more important. And not only that, but learning about STEM can enhance experiences in other fields; it’s not just about academic subjects, but rather advancing skills like creativity and logical thinking that will apply to countless future pursuits.

"Long underrepresented in science and engineering, women are badly in need of a girl power-up. There simply aren't enough of them to fill voracious demand for technical jobs in the market today. By 2020, there will be 1.5 million too few U.S. college grads to fill the rising number of highly skilled jobs.
"Women could make up a good chunk of that shortfall, but only if more of them enter the pipeline. As of 2009, women earned just 31% of degrees in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), and women scientists and engineers only comprised 35% and 15% of the total, respectively.
"With people in short supply and technical skills in such high demand, it's a really good time to start thinking about how women could be changing the tech and science world as we know it. Here are several projects whose leaders have been doing just that."
