The STEM Strand is for SHS students who are inclined toward or have the aptitude for Math or Science or Engineering studies.Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics are intertwining disciplines when applied in the real world. The difference of the STEM curriculum with the other strands and tracks is the focus on advanced concepts and topics. Under the track, you can become a pilot, an architect, an astrophysicist, a biologist, a chemist, an engineer, a dentist, a nutritionist, a nurse, a doctor, and a lot more.
EDUCATION
APPLIED APPROACH
This approach emphasizes the application of knowledge. A student who can complete a math sheet on subtracting money should also be able to make change in the store. Of course not all information is so readily applied to life. This is overcome by actually doing the things taught or by finding a context in the students’s life for the new information. The age, development and “readiness” of the student is always kept in mind.
It is believed that a student will better learn a new concept if he or she is walked through it and then allowed to apply it. The teacher’s role is very important because the teaching parent knows the student better than anyone else. This approach gives the teacher the power to discern where the students need help and how to give it to them.
BENEFIT
THE GOAL
The goal of STEM introduction is to awaken students interests in these fields by early exploration and creative learning experiences. Learning by fun and by doing! And growing enthusiasm and love for STEM and STEM- related fields by endangering success.
STEM education is a promising opportunity for everyone who wants a better future for their children. The best thing a parent can do is encourage their child to embrace STEM and love it. The best thing a student can do is to ensure that STEM is part of their continuing education.
