S.T.E.M. Programs
What is S.T.E.M.?
S.T.E.M. is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (sometimes also known as S.T.E.A.M. adding A for Art). These programs are focused on teaching children the fundamentals of how to do projects and learn about each of these subjects with the aim of making it fun, engaging, and interesting enough that children will want to continue to learn about these subjects in the future. Often, there is a focus on girls within the program, as these are seen as traditionally male dominated subjects.
