This initiative is funded by a PAsmart Advancing Grant from the PA Department of Education.
"Launch into STEM Learning Environments" provides a continuum of opportunities for teachers to strengthen instructional practices that will support students’ critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication in the classroom. Each of the pathways is distinct in offering different entry points for teachers, allowing for individual growth in a format that is suitable to the individual and their classroom needs. First year cohorts kicked off in late 2022 and include: Exploring STEM Learning Environments, Inquiry Practices for STEM Learning, and Project-Based Learning for STEM Environments.
