CCE-STEM cultivates systemic approaches that transform STEM education and career pathways into equitable learning experiences and opportunities for females.
This online event is a great opportunity for parents who would like to learn more about nurturing the leader within their child. #raisingfutureleaderssummit20#homeschooling http:/www.rasisingfutureleaderssummit.com
To all the moms who want their daughters to be bold, brave and pursue their interests in Science! Check out the movie Troop Zero! It looks like it will be a great mother/daughter movie and it is available on Amazon Prime January 17th. https://t.co/YcFYYNOO4D #GirlsinScience
This idea is a perfect example of why it is so important to encourage young girls to examine the world around them and nurture their creativity. They are the future designers of real world problems.
At the elementary level, there are many opportunities within stories for teaching STEM concepts. The problems the characters encounter are a great tool for teaching students how to use the design process. #engineeringiselementary#EiE
Show children as early as possible that STEM is a subject to be revered, and reasons why being both a science and an arts person is the way to go. @Konnie_Huq wants to get more children excited about science and engineering

A teacher who encouraged me to check out what he did in his design and technology class. From the moment I stepped in the classroom, I knew it would be way more exciting teaching D&T instead of English.
❓ What made you choose your career path?

Access to informal learning experiences at the elementary and middle school levels also strengthen girls’ persistence and confidence before they enter high school. This also ensures there are fewer leaks in the pipeline across academic programs into the STEM workforce.
Access to #CS courses in high school supported by strong parental and teacher engagement are factors in ensuring girls will persist over obstacles to continue studying #computerscience in college and entering a tech career. https://t.co/XYR9YZTNU4 @LindaKekelis @CSforALL
Q3: To ensure project-based learning is authentic, teachers should allow students to choose real world problems to solve within their community and partner with local companies who could potentially implement the students’ solutions. #DefinedSTEMchat
The Candian Coalition for Women in Engineering, Science, Trades and Technology (CCWESTT) is kicking off Eweek and Girl Day. Register for their webinar to see how you can give every child an engineering experience. https://t.co/d4gGJ09QgA
CTV caught up with our Kitchener-Waterloo CAGIS girls last week, along with CAGIS alumna @giuliasrossi, having fun with lasers and cryogenics at @QuantumIQC@UWaterloo!

@ngcproject The article is interesting. One other strategy to consider when teaching STEM is to also frame the projects around solving real life problems that positively impact others.
@afterschool4all Informal learning opportunities such as quality afterschool programming have potential to transform participants’ future. #QualitySTEM
@Lev23Maddy@afterschool4all@GirlsWhoCode Professional development for S.T.E.M. teachers is one strategy for creating inclusive programs. In doing this the conversation between the silo disciplines becomes more collaborative and can result in a changed culture. #QualitySTEM
@LindaKekelis @SciGirls @the_connectory @afterschool4all Partnerships are also a great way to share resources. Through a systemic approach organizations and communities will began to see more females persist in the STEM field. #QualitySTEM
@LindaKekelis @4H @GoldenMom2009 @the_connectory @afterschool4all Barbara Bogue and the The Assessing Women and Men Project do have some instruments that are very useful for evaluating programs and collecting data. #QualitySTEM
