Are you passionate about helping students see science and math in action? Do you value hands-on, meaningful learning experiences for children and youth? This could be an opportunity to make a real impact in STEM and trades education for K–12 learners in Alberta.
The STEM Project brings together K–12 schools, skilled trades professionals, and post-secondary institutions to help students understand how their math and science learning connects to careers in the trades. The project also supports teachers by providing curriculum-aligned resources and access to skilled tradespeople who can help make those connections meaningful for students.
As a Project Facilitator for The STEM Project at Lethbridge Polytechnic, you will work with faculty, instructional designers, AV specialists, media specialists, writers, and formatters to create resources and learning experiences that connect K–12 science and mathematics curriculum with the skilled trades.
This project focuses on creating engaging, hands-on resources for teachers to bring STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) and the skilled trades to life, including:
- Educational videos
- Classroom manipulative kits
- Classroom toolkits
- 3D printable files
- Lesson activities
- An industry expert directory
- In-class and on-campus learning experiences
- Teacher professional learning
