Just so others know, this was a great workshop that helped us to imagine natural integration of the STEM disciplines kids address significant problems.
Here was the prompt: Come up with a recommendation for one solution for these three problems: Collapsing economy, fuel scarcity, global climate change. Our five or six groups, each with different solutions, couldn’t AVOID employing the STEM! It was great!
