"Empowering Parents to Inspire the Next Generation of STEM Professionals"
HIGHLIGHTS:
Connecting parents as educational partners today will be a first step in nurturing children who will pursue STEM careers and become future STEM professionals.
Our goal is to simplify the idea of STEM education and remove some common misconceptions. In fact, we want to convey the message that STEM is part of our everyday activities and life experiences.
We endeavour to break-down gender and media stereotypes, demystify "STEM" while providing an experience that sparks excitement in parents and children for STEM based education.
Special guest Dan Riskin (Co-host of the Discovery Channel's Daily Planet Show) will be at the conference again to interact with conference participants.
