Have you ever had people ask you, “What do you do?” And you say, “I'm a STEM teacher!” Then they respond with, “Well, what is STEM? And you explain, “Well, it stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math!” Then after that, they say, “Well, how is that different from what they're already learning in the regular classroom?”

Have you had those conversations?

I definitely have.

In this episode, we're going to get a clear understanding of what STEM education means, in the elementary setting, debunk common misconceptions, and build a strong foundation for your own classroom.
