STEM Transformation Projects

Do you have an idea for a project that can transform the way you deliver STEM education in your school? The STEMwise team wants to help you take your vision to reality!  Prior to attending the STEMwise conference, you will need to develop an Educational Leadership Team within your school district.  This team should be made up of other professionals in your school district who have a similar passion for STEM and an interest in making it happen!  Together, your team should take time prior to attending the conference to more fully develop your idea using these questions as a guide.  During the STEMwise conference, Educational Leadership Teams will interact with and be consulted by STEM education leaders from across the country to support development of STEM Transformation Projects.

 

STEMwise Mini-Grant Program
The purpose of the STEMwise Mini-Grant Program is to provide funds  (up to $2,500) for development, implementation, and evaluation of innovative STEM Transformation Projects proposed by participating Educational Leadership Teams.  Transformation Projects should address an area of improvement in STEM in your school/district.  Teams with the most compelling proposals will be awarded with mini-grant funds to help expedite their new project.  Download and complete the STEMwise Mini-Grant Program application and submit by June 1st.  For questions or additional information, please contact your regional program officer:
