See where STEM  and Standard-Based Leaning with the integration of computers go hand in hand in providing exciting computer-based resources and lessons for your students. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering Mathematics) addresses concerns that the subjects are often taught in isolation. This course will show how using technology will increase your ability to have these courses “go together” and increase your skills in teaching these subjects. Both you and your students will benefit. Help them be successful for those jobs that are not even created yet. Participants will be creating computer-based activities as well as taking part in them. Several free online programs will have to be downloaded to complete this course. They can easily be removed when finished. This class is appropriate for all educators N-12, Math, Science, and Special Education.
