Many school districts are moving middle and high schools towards a STEM model to prepare students for the future. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering, and math. This interdisciplinary problem-based inquiry learning can be confusing for parents, students, and educators who have never faced it before. I would like to share some websites that can give additional information about this topic.
