“STEM education,” as used in this report, includes the subjects of mathematics, biology, chemistry, and physics, which have traditionally formed the core requirements of many state curricula at the K-12 level. In addition, the report includes other critical subjects, such as computer science, engineering, environmental science and geology, with whose fundamental concepts K-12 students should be familiar.
There are between 3.8 and 5.8 million people in the US employed in NIT.
Computer and mathematical occupations are projected to add 785,700 new jobs from
2008 to 2018.
As a group, these jobs are forecast to grow more than twice as fast as the average for
all occupations in the economy. http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/microsites/ostp/pcast-nitrd-report-2010.pdf
Technology impacts all jobs and academic disciplines—all aspects of life.
6.4% of Jobs in U.S. are STEM Jobs
“Although the term ‘STEM education’ is used in national education policy, it is not implemented in a way that reflects the interdependence of the four STEM subjects.”
-NAE/NRC Committee on K-12 Engineering Education (2009)
“By ‘science,’ Project 2061 means basic and applied natural and social science, basic and applied mathematics, and engineering and technology, and their interconnections—which is to say the scientific enterprise as a whole. The basic point is that the ideas and practice of science, mathematics, and technology are so closely intertwined that we do not see how education in any one of them can be undertaken well in isolation from the others.”
-Benchmarks for Science Literacy (1993)

Origo may be the last toy you ever have to buy for your child. The prototype 3D printer under development by Artur Tchoukanov and Joris Peels allows children aged ten and up to design figurines and shapes on a computer, and then print them out to play with. Instead of buying your children more toys, let them make their own.
Cost: $800.00

Cyber physical computing is the fourth generation of computing. Cyber physical systems use computers, software and/or networks (or their logic) to monitor and/or direct the operation of physical processes and/or biological systems (or vice versa).

Cyber physical critical infrastructure applications cross many segments, including Agriculture, Food, Water, Public Health, Emergency Services, Government, Defense
Industrial Base, Information and Telecommunications, Energy, [Health], Transportation, Banking and Finance, Chemical Industry, and Postal and Shipping

Today, Finland’s progressive strategy includes: multi-disciplinary and multi-industry collaboration to integrate
nano science-, bio science-, information science- and cognitive science-based research and development (Tieke,
2005, p.9); converging design, art and science in the contexts of education and human development
(Tahkokallio and Koivusilta, 2004, p.1); national R&D policy and urban-rural development establishing connected
regional centers of innovation; partnering with global high tech markets and industries (Embassy of Switzerland, Beijing, 2005, p.12); and leading the world in “Public-
Private Partnership” (with efforts dating back to the year of their independence, 1917) (Tieke, 2005, p.12-15).
