How Education Powers the World Show 15 with Host Buffie Williams - STEM Education
Season 1 Episode 15
In this podcast, Buffie Williams will be sharing her knowledge about the field of education and wellness. Buffie will connect you with how education powers the world, discuss the restructuring of schools and the individualized education process (IEP) process, and provide a bi-monthly reading of our teen comic book series that tackles issues that youth face daily.
In an ever-changing, increasingly complex world, it's more important than ever that our nation's youth are prepared to bring knowledge and skills to solve problems, make sense of information, and know how to gather and evaluate evidence to make decisions. These are the kinds of skills that students develop in science, technology, engineering and math—disciplines collectively known as STEM. If we want a nation where our future leaders, neighbors, and workers have the ability to understand and solve some of the complex challenges of today and tomorrow, and to meet the demands of the dynamic and evolving workforce, building students' skills, content knowledge, and fluency in STEM fields is essential. We must also make sure that, no matter where children live, they have access to quality learning environments. A child's zip code should not determine their STEM fluency.
