- Connecting Learning Activities to STEM Careers – Participants will brainstorm STEM careers and connect them to common out-of-school time activities.
- Connecting STEM Activities to Future Careers – Participants will watch the Trying Out Career Roles module to learn how to connect activities to STEM careers.
- Creating an Action Plan for Connecting to STEM Careers – Participants will watch the Connecting the Activity to a Career Video-Based Learning Module to learn to connect youths’ experience to STEM pathways and careers.
Support Early Childhood STEAM Learning Through Play
Get ready to play with the National Girls Collaborative Project! In this webinar recording, learn how to leverage an interdisciplinary STEAM approach to foster young children’s curiosity through authentic play-based learning.
While there are many benefits to early introductions to STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics), many STEAM education tools and technologies are cost-prohibitive and are not playful or developmentally appropriate for young learners. In this recording, learn how early childhood educators and caregivers can utilize playful, low-cost, and screen-free approaches to introducing high-tech STEAM concepts and skills. The speakers will share evidence-based, hands-on approaches as well as a practical framework to effectively integrate STEAM learning in the early grades (pre-K to 3rd grade).
