We are excited to announce that Jeff Weld has joined as a senior policy advisor. He will work on projects related to the STEM Education Coalition. bosepublicaffairs.com/2024/12/jeff-w…

As promised, a comparison: New skin, headings, emphases but spectrally the new plan retains most of the backbone of our 2018-2023 plan. Both 2018 & 2024 weave a STEM-for-All thread, 2024 just weaves with heavier yarn. How might #47 feel about it? Page 6! stemedcoalition.squarespace.com/updates/compar…

What a treat to moderate @AAAS SOA panel @Joannecarney, @KarishmaMerchant and @JamesBrown predicting #47 and STEM

1st birthday of jeffweldLLC.org --what a blast helping reform engineering ed, engage tech companies, advise investors, position nonprofits, coach new STEM leads, pitch presidential policies, and tell our story! 2025 will be watershed - let's work together! #STEMeducation

STEM ed. is a “blinking red” urgent task for America (Dario Gil @ issues.org/wp-content/upl…) Answer? -> scale STEM! School+biz partnerships, local context, convergence, competency, STEM credentials, WBL, Ecosystems --> blinking green. How?-> fas.org/publication/k-… #STEMworkforce

The FOMO is legit! Mar. 3-6 Austin, SXSW EDU aggregates ed. innovators. Each session = high octane fuel! Here's ours: "Industry-Aligned K-12 Pathways & the STEM Jobs of Tomorrow" (schedule.sxswedu.com/2025/events/PP…) See you there? #STEMed #STEMpolicy #SXSWEDU #STEMworkforce #workforceFuture

#Math on 2024 NAEP :( nces.ed.gov/nationsreportc…. Likely to downspin as more teachers get #STEM = kids interpret real data, predict outcomes, explore ethics, create solutions....yet math q's on NAEP-->nationsreportcard.gov/mathematics/sa… But wait! :) HR730 in Congress - congress.gov/bill/119th-con…

"...recipes & protocols box in learners, or they could be handed the tools to fumble about, question & create. One mode is efficient, the other is meaningful. One fosters conformists, the other spawns innovators." tinyurl.com/STEMlearn #STEM trades efficiency 4 innovation.

Curious what's happening in Fed. STEM Ed.? Need help navigating? Join us next Wednesday on Capitol Hill! (Virtually or in-person) #STEMed #STEMpolicy #STEMeducation #EdInnovation #StateofSTEM

Coming up Wed. Feb. 26 is cast of STEM characters commenting on the status/future of STEM Ed. Join us (virtual) for *State of STEM Ecosystems 2025: Celebrating a Decade of Innovation* @ tiesteach-org.zoom.us/webinar/regist… #STEMed #STEMfutures #STEMpolicy #STEMNetwork #STEMecosystems2025

Just a reminder, dear friends/followers: the STEM action's over at LinkedIn join me there!-- linkedin.com/in/jeff-weld-b… #STEMed. #STEMeducation #STEM

1 week! *Industry-Aligned K-12 & STEM Jobs of Tomorrow* @sxswedu.com in Awe-stin! Today's education upheaval, like plowed soil, is the *perfect* condition for new seeds to sprout bold blossoms. Join us to re-imagine school and re-think sySTEMS of learning. schedule.sxswedu.com/2025/events/PP…

Work-based/Career-linked/Experiential Learning -- whatever we call it, #47 is about workforce development -- Beware tho - don't forget #STEMteachers! Here's the policy to make it happen: fas.org/publication/wo… More info? --> Ch. 8 in nsta.org/blog/creating-…

Need inspiration? Judge @FIRST Robotics [...or a science fair, math modeling, cyber-olympics, future cities - you get the idea] FIRST Robotics Competition Regional University of Northern Iowa this weekend --> Today's kids are brilliant 🧠 🤩 -- we're all going to be alright. #STEMEd

STEM's vexing challenges: Are our teachers #STEM-ready? Is AI usurping broader STEM imperative? How to widen participation w/o triggering censors? How pockets of excellence become landscapes of brilliance?... all slayed by STEM Education Coalition & STEMx members on The Hill yesterday!

Discussed Federal #STEM policy w/ K-12 Policy Wkg. Group of the Collaborative for Advancing Science Teaching & Learning (#CASTL) of the @NationalAcademies. Federal STEM Ed. policy, presently opaque, is the oxygen needed to fuel #47's innovation goals --> whitehouse.gov/briefings-stat…

Iowa's version of STEM schools, "STEM BEST" (now 139 of them!) is chapter 4 of my book *Creating a STEM Culture* - amazon.com/Creating-STEM-… Featured at last month's #NSTA conference -->youtube.com/watch?v=nFc8f7… Way to go @TanyaHunt Iowa STEM #STEMeducation

#STEMnetworks are geared to run #47's AI-in-Education EO - whitehouse.gov/presidential-a… - #STEM knows #Dual credit, #Public-private partnerships, Formal & informal ed., #Apprenticeships, from Sea to shining sea & toddler to tassel. Dear Michael Kratsios: #STEM can drive #AI-in-Ed.

U.S. STEM ed. faces 8 grand challenges that rock our foundation to its core. Each is surmountable, indeed leverageable, by mobilized STEM communities and organizations piloted by proactive leadership. It'll need to be a watershed moment. What & how coming soon! #STEMEducation

The first of 8 *Grand Challenges* for STEM Ed. is... TEACHER TRAINING HASN'T KEPT UP WITH STEM TEACHER PRACTICE. But good news!--> this panel of rockstars peels the onion at the JFF Horizons conference June 11. See you there? Seven more Challenges & Solutions coming soon.
