STEM for Rural Areas

  • STEM for Rural Areas

Young people say Education is one of the issues they care about most, and we believe they deserve quality education.

Students in rural areas are consistently challenged with barriers to a high-quality STEM education.

The shortages of Math, English and Science Teachers in rural areas, and limited access to basic learning resources makes it more challenging for them to be exposed to STEM programs.

 
 

Our Goal

  • Expand and Improve STEM learning in rural communities via support for teachers in these communities by increasing their human capital and creating a diverse workforce, this includes the recruitment of unemployed college graduates.
  • Help rural areas support and sustain high-quality science learning. Use technology to support STEM practice, focus on AI as many people in the current rural workforce fear the continuing evolution of technology and its impact on their sustainability
  • Introducing STEM practices like the use of AI to improve farming and ranching thereby developing a new generation of experts.
  • We are also addressing the isolation that some rural educators feel by using distance learning networks to build connections between scientists and teachers via online education.
