Preparing Students for the Future with Computational Thinking
What is a STEM Curriculum?
STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and math.
STEM education prepares students for many of the occupations that are key to a sturdier 21st-century economy, especially in our post-pandemic era. Software developers, medical professionals, industrial machinery mechanics, computer support specialists, electricians, cybersecurity analysts, and dozens of other in-demand workers need extensive STEM knowledge and problem-solving skills. To prepare for these jobs, students need a strong foundation in middle school so they can excel in the next stages of their education and the future workforce.
