The story behind..
The STEM Impressionists Ms. DeHart created the STEM Impressionists Group to work with Glasgow Students who are interested in exploring STEM. The main objectives for this club are:
1) To ensure that the participants engage in STEM activities that are documented and can be showcased. Recording student engagement in STEM activities not only gives them the ability to evidence the quality of their knowledge/skills but offers them the opportunity to create a resume that can be used to support their qualifications when they are applying to colleges and for scholarships.
2) To create an avenue of career exploration by introducing students to different STEM career paths. Providing students with an opportunity to speak to experts in different STEM fields allows them to get a feel as they narrow their interests. Being able to teach STEM skills to others gives students a solid hands-on interaction with the topic/tool as well as having a more in-depth understanding of how the topic/tool works.
3) To introduce STEM to students and their peers. This attribute affords students with the opportunity to give back to their community, it allows them to gain professional presentation/communication as well as the practical hands-on skills they need to prepare them for their 21st-century careers.
The STEM Impressionists Group is hands-on and innovative. It empowers students with leadership and entrepreneurial skills and prepares them for real world challenges in various fields.
The InvitationYou are being invited to a presentation of an
opportunity that I would like to offer to a group of students next year. The intent of participation in this group is for each student to walk away with a
STEM experience that will allow them to earn scholarship money for college and place their activities in alignment with going to the top
Ivy/significant school in the US. If you would like to hear my presentation please come to my room
today during academic time.
We meet in F226 on Wednesdays during academic time
