[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate trends in education. We need to go back to having a well rounded education! The fine arts are just as critical to development. It is shameful that so many school districts do not offer art once a week for elementary school kids. All of these early skills lead to great mathematicians and engineers too. I have an undergrad degree in Fine Arts and a graduate degree in computer science. I love both![/quote] Hear! Hear! I work in education (I'm a communications person and a liberal arts major) and I have always hated STEM as an acronym and as a concept. bs. Everything has to be made into a buzzword so it can be monetized and corporatized. That said, my girl's into Lego Robotics and space and also loves reading, writing and drawing. She wants to be an engineer and an artist. Fine by me. [/quote]
