Incorporating Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math into your German lessons is easier than you think! You don't have to have a science or math background or even a STEM program at your institution to start. This webinar will define STEM concepts, its benefits, and explain how to create lessons through the STEM lens. The presenter will share activities and student samples to demonstrate how STEM based instruction fits in with ACTFL World Readiness Standards, 21st Century Skills, and the International Baccalaureate and Advanced Placement programs.
