[quote=Anonymous]I am a teacher and this is the kind of shit that makes teaching a drag. Every kindergarten should be doing science and math. Engineering? Yep, kindergarteners build stuff. Technology? Not necessary or appropriate for early childhood classrooms. But we can't just say that we're doing science and math any more, it has to be "STEM"! Ooooh, we heard some education buzzword, now the focus is going to be showing how cutting edge we are by using this buzzword a whole bunch of times so parents can see how cutting edge we are! Once we get to the point where we are showing kindergarteners powerpoint presentations about "innovators", we have really gone down the rabbit hole. Aiy yi yi.[/quote]
