Understanding the fundamentals of STEM is vital to ensure youth are equipped with the necessary knowledge to meet the expectations of high-demand jobs. Engaging youth through hands-on workshops helps develop 21st -Century skills such as creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration.
Program participants acquire skills by engaging in the following process: learn background information, apply the information in a controlled setting, analyze the experience, evaluate their learning, create something that applies the content to their personal setting, and close with a reflection on the whole experience. Throughout each learning process cycle, participants also sharpen their emotional intelligence through intentional, guided activities.
We can and we will empower the next generation!
