STEAM Training
After giving a talk on how to integrate STEAM into curriculum at the APGA Conference HERE and then assisting the education team at the Desert Botanical Garden to create a STEAM curriculum I created a training for the DBG’s docents and volunteers in how to put the STEAM Curriculum into practice for students on tours and in classes at the garden.
At Laboratory5 Inc. We bring together all elements of STEAM and tie them up into a package to promote the work each individual is doing in their fields to celebrate this work. We produce experiences so that those unfamiliar with the glorious, quirky, nerdy, geeky qualities of all areas of STEAM can be explored as an adventure to explain these fields. Talk with us about producing your STEAM experience or advising on your STEAM curriculum.
