How NextWaveSTEM connects STEM with SEL
How NextWaveSTEM connects STEM with SEL

Looking into our education systems, we understand the importance of quality education – not just in the material taught by teachers but also in the social environments in which we position students. Students learn so much more than math equations and history lessons in school. They learn how to interact with people, understand the different kinds of relationships, and how they function in relation to others.

What To Do With Old Technology, Specifically 3D Printers

What you need is an easy and affordable solution. Consider trying out our solutions - we can provide you with newer models of 3D printers, curriculum for K-12 learners, and training for the teachers who will lead the courses. Or we can even teach it ourselves (our “We Teach” model). Whatever you choose, your school’s 3D printers will no longer be unused, and your students will have another creative output that is providing real-world STEM design, teamwork and critical thinking skills.

Why STEM Education Should Be a Priority
Why STEM Education Should Be a Priority

In order to prepare today’s students for tomorrow’s careers, we must place a high priority on introducing STEM-focused curriculum earlier into a child’s academic career with hands-on exposure to new technologies that capture the imagination and drive curiosity. If we don’t, we are dangerously close to a metric where we will fail to meet the projected demand for STEM-focused jobs.
