This STEM-focused program is tailored for certified educators aiming to develop the expertise and mindset needed to effectively incorporate STEM curriculum, particularly for linguistically diverse learners. The program defines technology in two key aspects: information technology (using computer applications to enrich math and science education) and design technology (exploring innovations created by engineers and inventors). These technological approaches are applied to elementary science and mathematics instruction to deepen conceptual understanding. The integration happens within a framework that considers how societal influences both inform and transform school curricula and teaching methods.
