FACILITATING DISTANCE LEARNING
COVID – 19 Resource Library – Activities for children
It’s times like this when the power and the value of the STEM Learning Ecosystems Community of Practice (SLECoP) becomes very visible. Thanks to STEM Learning Ecosystems, you can practice Marshmallow Catapults, Building a Rube Goldberg Machine, and more! The SLECoP is organizing a series of webinars for parents, educators, school administrators and anyone who have students in their care. These webinars are intended to help them with practical tips they can employ for how to keep their children engaged and learning with STEM at Home.
