The Washington STEM Center is focused on transforming the educational environment to support effective STEM teaching and dramatically improve student learning. To achieve unprecedented results requires partnerships that are networked together in unprecedented ways. The network serves to capture and disseminate the knowledge, ideas, resources, programs, and services needed to generate solutions that will allow STEM education to grow and flourish in the 21st century. Inspiration for these solutions comes from existing research and lessons learned from prior work. This knowledge base spawns new ideas that can be adapted to local environments and conditions in innovative and thoughtful ways to achieve the desired results. Here’s a look at some of the research that is informing the design of the Washington STEM Center.
