Great opportunity to leverage our current STEM teacher partnerships!
• Small amount of funding is perfect for teachers
• Teachers are thrilled to be partnering w/ US Army & STEM professionals
• Strong willingness to share results amongst fellow teachers
• Curriculum efforts include attention to understanding:
– STEM careers in the Department of Defense/Federal Government
– Industry role w/ focus on how new technologies result in products
– Unique need of manufacturing base
– Visits to STEM Labs to see technology development process first hand
• Critical Need: New materials for the classroom! Providing teachers with this unique opportunity is helping to meet this need.
• Participating teachers are extremely grateful & want to express their appreciation to the FLC for sponsoring these grants.
