Happy National STEM Awareness Day! Today, we celebrate Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math, the critical fields driving innovation, shaping our future, and empowering diverse voices in every industry. STEM is about so much more than just formulas and technology—it’s about creativity, problem-solving, and building a better world. For me, National STEM Awareness Day is also a reminder of the importance of Digital Inclusion and equal access to STEM opportunities for all communities, especially for Native American youth and underserved populations. When we invest in STEM, we unlock potential, create pathways to high-quality jobs, and empower the next generation to tackle some of our world's biggest challenges. Let’s take this day to inspire someone, spark curiosity in our youth, and challenge ourselves to learn something new. Remember, STEM fields aren't just for scientists or engineers. Whether you're a teacher, artist, caregiver, or leader, you can make an impact in STEM—and encourage others to do the same. To all the brilliant minds working in STEM today, thank you for your dedication and resilience. And to everyone else—let’s support, mentor, and celebrate the innovators among us, coast to coast!

STEM education – like all education – can open doors and reveal opportunities that people may not have known even existed.?STEM education isn’t the path for everyone, but everyone does have a path.?When we make STEM opportunities available, we’re giving a great gift: the gift of opportunity to learn, to seek, to explore, and to choose. UScellular celebrates STEM educators and influences today and every day. Find out about the STEM educators who influenced UScellular associates' careers while the company supports future STEM innovators. #usccemp https://bit.ly/3Mxv1t6

Did you know the National Science Foundation has found that women make up only 21% of engineering majors, 19% of computer science majors and 3% of STEM industry CEO’s? What’s more, minority women make up only 1.6% of engineering majors, 3% of computer science majors and 14.1% of STEM bachelor's degrees. That is why STEM for Her works to address these inequities by serving and empowering girls and young women in the DC Metro Area, particularly those representing historically underserved populations. We work hard to ensure that at least 65% of the students attending STEM for Her Day come from a Title 1, low-income school. Sponsor one of these students' attendance now to this transformational day of exciting programming, intimate discussion, competitions, networking, and more.

Edifying Teachers?is pleased to join the?Beyond100K?national network. Extending the successful '100Kin10' work led by?Talia Milgrom-Elcott, Beyond100K unites leading organizations to co-develop and implement solutions that will?end the STEM teacher shortage by 2043, especially for those most excluded from STEM opportunities. Beyond100K recently engaged 600 young people, who shared their STEM stories. "They told us that when they felt excluded from STEM, they put aside their STEM dreams. When they belonged, their natural curiosity for STEM could take hold, and they pursued and persisted in STEM through college and beyond. Teachers create classrooms of belonging." Find out more about the 'Uncommission,' the Beyond100K map illustrating key challenges and levers, and the commitments we and our fellow partners have made to being integral to this solution! https://lnkd.in/eQGYcD3e

?? Empowering the Next Generation of Innovators! ?? “When I grow up, I want to build things.” “When I grow up, I want to fly in space.” ??? When do children’s dreams start to fade, and how can we support them in pursuing their aspirations, especially in STEM careers? In the U.S., too many students are underprepared, underrepresented, and overlooked in STEM fields. Our latest article presents a case study on how an informal STEM education program in Philadelphia is changing that narrative. University City Science Center’s FirstHand program leverages cross-sector collaborations to provide high-quality, engaging learning experiences for students from underserved schools. FirstHand offers free, multi-week STEM programming for middle and high school students, fostering deep partnerships with schools and STEM professionals. These authentic, mentored learning experiences give students the support they need to explore and plan for a STEM-focused future. ???? Learn how FirstHand’s collaborative model is making a sustained impact and how it can be implemented in other regions to inspire more young minds. ?? Read the full article now! ??

?? Happy STEM Day! ?? Today, we celebrate not just Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math, but also the incredible impact these fields can have on our mental well-being. ???? Engaging with STEM helps us think critically, problem-solve, and find creative solutions—all skills that strengthen resilience and mental health. Whether you’re experimenting in a lab, coding, or analyzing data, you’re building confidence and fueling curiosity. ??? Let’s remember: taking on new challenges in STEM can be tough, but every small step brings growth and empowerment. Share your favorite STEM projects or something new you've learned, and let’s keep inspiring each other to stay curious, confident, and kind to ourselves! ???? #STEMDay #MentalHealthMatters #CuriosityAndGrowth

Girls in STEM represents breaking barriers and rewriting the narrative for young women. It’s about claiming our space in fields traditionally dominated by men, and showing the world that innovation knows no gender. It means being fearless in the face of challenges, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, and inspiring the next generation of girls to pursue their passions in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. I expect the upcoming Girls in STEM training to be an empowering experience that not only enhances my technical skills but also connects me with like-minded peers and mentors. I’m looking forward to learning cutting-edge concepts, gaining hands-on experience, and discovering new opportunities in STEM that I can apply in my future career. I believe this training will be a pivotal step in my journey to becoming a leader and innovator in the STEM field.

]?? [[{“value”:” Let’s do better than provide kids with random STEM programs. With less structure and more time for self-directed engagement, summer is the perfect time to encourage children’s interests, confidence, and creativity. Summer affords time for the budding astronomer to stay up late and observe the constellations, for the young scientist to explore nature, and for the tech enthusiast to... https://lnkd.in/ei2yGCXe

"Every community needs STEM-literate citizens who can engage with and help solve critical issues that impact our society." "Everyone benefits when we empower young people to become engaged citizens who understand how STEM can be used for public good and critical thinkers who are prepared to tackle the challenges of the future." "Afterschool and summer programs provide these opportunities and are proven to spark children’s interest in STEM."
