Welcome to the STEM- Science, Technology, Engineering and Math Subject Guide- RESOURCES at a GLANCE

WHAT IS STEM?

STEM i is an acronym for Science, Technology , Engineering and Mathematics. It is based on the desire to integrate isolated fields into an interdisciplinary and applied approach for education and for developing new technologies. Instead of teaching the four disciplines separate, STEM integrates them together for practical purposes. It is an attempt to improve our educational system to increase exposure to the applied systems of science. Browse the LIBRARY RESOURCES in the GUIDE- There is a whole lot more to find!
