a premier on-line community designed exclusively to foster STEM achievement through the sharing of best practices
a monthly webinar series that will feature today’s leading scientists, academics, and personalities such as Dr. Michio Kaku, theoretical physicist and host of Science Channel’s Sci Fi Science: Physics of the Impossible, to excite students and provide teachers with actionable recommendations for integrating STEM into the classroom
a week-long STEM immersion program that will enable 50 select teachers to meet in Washington, D.C. to engage with today’s critical science thinkers and other peers from across the nation and visit leading institutions to see real-world applications of STEM subject matter
a two-week residential professional development program, Siemens Teachers As Researchers (STARS), for select middle school and high school teachers in which teachers engage in mentored research projects with top scientists and researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, TN
