The Texas Education Agency is offering a two-day immersive professional development to prepare campus administrators and STEM leaders to shape, support, and sustain STEM initiatives within their district or campus. Participants will learn by doing, engaging directly in the instructional approaches most critical to the STEM endeavor: project-based learning, design-based challenges, and computational thinking. Working backward from a model vision for STEM education, the session culminates with leaders collaboratively planning for real-life implementation of STEM programming. This session is planned for in-person attendance with social distancing/sanitization practices in place. We could move to a virtual environment depending on the health risk circumstances at the scheduled time. You will be notified and provided a list of potential materials needed to take part in the activities.
