STEMwork Professional Learning Institute
|
|
|
|
|
| |
The Kenan Fellows Program for Teacher Leadership at N.C. State University is looking for K-12 educators to join its STEMwork Professional Learning Institute in 2023-24. STEMwork addresses the gap between industry and K-12 education. The blended (online and in-person) professional development program equips teachers with the tools to foster meaningful industry connections and guides them through the process of learning how to design Project-Based Learning (PBL) units. Teachers will have the chance to go behind the scenes at local industries over the summer. It's a great chance to explore local career pathways for students. The program is free for participants. Watch a video to learn more about STEMwork. Educators can register online.
Please enjoy your e-Update. Tweet us @NCSTEM with your feedback.
