Summary

Series 7 Episode 1: STEM Education at Risks in the United States and Beyond - In the first episode we explore how the decision to shutter the US Department of Education in the United States will likely negatively impact STEM education at both the state and international levels. Starting with a historical discussion of federal involvement in STEM education since the landmark 1983 A Nation At Risk Report, this episode explores the likely risks and negative impacts to STEM education as it relates to curriculum standards, educational funding, professional development, and supporting STEM education for at risk and underserved schools and communities both in the United States and internationally.
