Creative Combinations: Integrating STEM and Literacy (Poster 20)

Saturday, November 11, 2023
12:00 PM – 1:00 PM East Coast USA Time
Location: Veracruz Exhibit Hall
Stories have the potential to challenge children’s imaginations. STEM+C2, a Jacob K. Javits project, uses biographies of prominent STEM individuals and STEM experiential learning to cultivate psychosocial skills and critical reasoning skills, essential components of the talent development framework. Explore instructional examples of literacy and STEM learning that cultivate persistence, resilience, and innovation.

Learning Objectives:

  • Participants will gain an understanding of how literature, including non-fiction texts, can be used as a platform to plan and implement STEM activities in elementary classrooms.
  • Participants will gain an understanding of how STEM experiential learning activities can be used to develop talent in young gifted students.
  • Participants will understand how STEM experiential learning can be used to promote creativity, real-world problem solving, innovation, decision making, communication, and critical thinking.
