Contrary to what people say, that don't want to put forth the effort, STEM education is the way to go for the future. China and Japan realize this and have their children at the front of the line. It is best to start early. My stem education started early in about the third grade. We built model airplanes and flew them during recess. We also built electromagnets, and other such science projects. We had regular science shows come to the school. My favorite was the crystal radio which actually worked. From there I was hooked on electronics. This in turn lead me to become a federally licensed Radio/Telecommunications Engineer. I enjoyed a very rewarding career.
I'll have to disagree on this one Roger. Although the Chinese start early in STEM (I will not comment on the Japanese here) their graduates often lack the ability to think "Out of the box'. In my time (25+years in radio/telco engineering) I have interviewed many Chinese candidates often with 'Masters' qualifications only to find that when thrown a 'real life curve ball problem' they lack the capacity critically and creativity think and solve problems i.e when posed with practical radio propagation challenges they are all to quick to cite Maxwell, Rayleigh or Okumura-Hata yet miss the the real life/operational implications, solutions or considerations. My jury is well and truely out on the Chinese (and Indian) educational systems, they appear to be very transmissionist in nature thus lacking many of the constructivist properties such as those detailed a time 00:50 of this video:)
I’m going stem school focused on that my school is amazing it has so many different classes that I can take I’m only in middle school and this is AMAZING I am doing way better with my grades, I have an A in math while when I went to a normal public school I was getting an F In math I’m glad to say stem schools are amazing
1 what are the eligibility to take stem after 12th? 2 how many courses can we choose in stem? Do we choose course ourself in stem? 3 is it possible to take biology related course in stem after 12th without biology?
All these comments talking about the lack of opportunities for STEM graduates in America which got me thinking "if its that hard to get a job as a stem student in America....... Then how about the Philippines?!?!" Cause I'm a Filipino and I can tell you that yes, opportunities here are very lacking.
As if English would ever be important enough to represent the E. E is for engineering, the meaningful application of science and math to develop technologies.
I am trying to study trignometry and died , tried calculus again died , tried to attempt genetics with organic chemistry alas died and i am in 7th standard (well trigmometry and genetics came out fine)
Watch: "The Global Water Crisis: POU Water Filters -- The Balanced Equation HQ" on RU-vid. This video introduces an interdisciplinary unit entitled: "STEM-ming The Global Drinking Water Crisis" which is loaded with great hands-on STEM activities. Read the description below the video.
Hah! I have a STEM education. There are no jobs! This "you need a STEM education" bologna that's being repeated constantly is just that: bologna. I did very well in school, have much industry experience, and there are no jobs, any more! Getting a STEM education will simply make a student just that much worse off. Why? Because the STEM educated are too expensive too hire in America, now, while at the same time the education is expensive. Americans still desire to be paid for their labor. The key is to keep the Americans buying while at the same time removing their employment possibilities little by little, like the proverbial frog in the frying pan. I for one am sick of hearing this STEM education bologna. I'm here to tell you, America, it's a lie, and a big one!
You cannot find a job because you vote for democrats, who are communist and they stiffle the private sector. Stop voting for democrats and jobs will appear magically if from out of the sky.
Who declared that for society to be “fair” everythang must be distributed per the demographic? If I were a woman who could leverage my gender, I would not waste that on STEM where three days a week are spent in mind and butt numbing project, budget and schedule status meetings, where creativity is stifled by risk averse managers who fear looking bad and career advancement is found kissing up the big dogs after work in fern bars and Saturday morning golf games. STEM is Dilbert and Caddy Shack. Who would choose that if there were another way?
kids need know how to cook to and the thing about wasting money was for those Chromebooks the really stupid they can hear whatever you say and they can see you through the little camera on top
