How can this help me improve my program?
In this STEM CLASP we are offering the opportunity to explore some of the best practices associated with OST STEM education with integration of intentional SEL (Social Emotional Learning) skills and tools. STEM subjects, like any other, require excellent SEL skills for success and understanding. Likewise, there are plenty of SEL skills to be learned from STEM practices.
We will connect participants with STEM professionals, educators, and build not only your SEL related skill sets, but also your professional network. We will explore how to build sustainable STEM programming into your afterschool program to help support school day education goals and open doors beyond them for learning and working within the community to build unique, positive and meaningful relationships that support the young people in your programs.
