[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been hearing and reading a lot about STEM and a STEM education. For those not in the know, STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. To me it seems like they are just repackaging what students should be learning. I'd love to hear what others think and if they do or plan to send their kids to a school that promotes itself as a STEM school. Oh, and if not STEM, what program(s) drew you to your current school?[/quote] Fad fad fad. Dd school makes a big deal out of engineering class in fifth grade but it is the same plans every year and the teacher sits on her behind insulting kids instead of actually teaching. Both of my daughters had her and the class was exactly the same. No innovation. [/quote] What is engineering class? Does it teach physics and calculus?[/quote]
