In 1965, 49 years ago, Gordon Moore of Intel famously proclaimed that silicon density, the number of transistors on computer chips, would double approximately every two years. In effect, Moores Law is the platform upon which U.S. and global wealth creation has been built since the Apollo program. A new technology wave has emerged that is changing everything we know, or think we know about business and technology in the world driven by the intersection of [operational technology and cyberspace].

SURVIVAL OF SPECIES GOVERNANCE SECURITY & SAFETY QUALITY OF CIVIL LIFE WEALTH JOBS MARKETS Cyber- STEM What is STEM? Why is STEM important? 92. What is STEM in the context of P-20 Education Practice? STEM is transformation by design. STEM is transformation of social, human, and environmental systems by human design and the unintended consequences of human design choices. STEM is a technological force changing society and social institutions. STEM is changing the structure, flow, and composition of social institutions and personal identity: family, education, work, economy, law, government, etc. From an identity perspective technology and more broadly STEM effects our worldview, our concepts of: self-efficacy, subjectivity, objectivity, privacy, time, space (place), geography, cosmology, individuality, identity, values, beliefs and culture. STEM is a process of collaboration connecting institutional silos (education, government, industry, and civil society) to satisfy community and global needs. STEM is confronting the local challenges in your community and school through the process of inquiry, design, and innovation. STEM is turning a community inward on itself to form learning communities and laboratories designed to effect local and global opportunities and challenges through collaboration and cooperation. STEM is a moral imperative to prepare all students for their future, rather than our past. STEM educational practices, ideally, today open access and opportunity in education through a balanced approach to learning that retains the important fundamentals of classical education while integrating contemporary knowledge, processes, and tools. 93.
