My S.T.E.M. (science, technology, engineering, and math) students are curious, active, and inquisitive. Everyday they spend time asking questions and investigating what they are curious about. They use critical thinking skills to learn S.T.E.M. content through real-world problem based learning opportunities. Students cooperate with one another to work to answer questions in a team. Problem-based learning provides a unique opportunity for students to learn to solve problems on their own. The days of lecturing in front of the classroom are long gone, I am now a facilitator of questions guiding students along the path of learning for themselves.
