Teachers learn about agriculture and robotics education opportunities at STEM summit

Students who attended SciTech Institute’s Arizona STEM & Innovation Summit in September had opportunities to go hands-on with a wide variety of tech-focused exhibits-including virtual reality and remote-controlled digital flight simulators-but much of the real learning was geared towards teachers and school administrators. During the summit, attendees had the opportunity to choose from over fifty STEM-related sessions covering a wide range of topics. A key focus of many of these workshops was how teachers can make their STEM programming more relevant by integrating real-world industries like agriculture and robotics into their curriculum, particularly through coding.
