Developing STEM Talent by Integrating Collaboration, Perseverance and Psychosocial Skills

Developing STEM Talent by Integrating Collaboration, Perseverance, and Psychosocial Skills

Saturday, November 11, 2023
2:30 PM – 3:00 PM East Coast USA Time
Location: Fiesta 9/10
As students encounter challenging STEM concepts, they also need to grow in perseverance, collaboration, creative risk-taking, and other psychosocial strengths to move to the highest levels of talent development. In this session, we explore engineering and technology-based makerspace activities that integrate psychosocial skill development. Resources are provided to differentiate and implement these concepts in your classroom.

Learning Objectives:

  • Gain knowledge of research-based practices for integrating psychosocial strength development in STEM activities
  • Practice analyzing psychosocial skills in specific engineering/technology activities and then differentiate the concepts for application in other STEM topics
  • Receive tools and ideas for implementing these practices in their own classrooms
