As time passes, more and more jobs require a solid foundation in science, technology, engineering, math, or a combination thereof. Yet a substantial shortage of people who have acquired the skill set to fill these jobs is predicted.
The new STEM Student Planner™ is an educational tool designed to address this issue. Our high school/college planner familiarizes students in grades nine through 12 and beyond with 48 different STEM-related careers, what is needed to pursue each one, and some benefits of doing so – all with the goal of sparking within the minds of our youngest generation a sincere interest in the jobs of tomorrow.
These one-of-a-kind planners emphasize a different STEM-related topic every month of the school year. Each week the various high school/college planner sections highlighted below teach students contemplating their futures as they approach adulthood about an associated career – one that could have a positive impact on both their own lives and the world at large.
