STEM Spotlight April/May

Computer Science is the theme of our fourth edition of the STEM Spotlight!  The goal of the STEM Spotlights is to highlight the critical contributions from the many diverse members of the STEM community. Facilitating the opportunity to see the wide range of people involved in the fields of STEM provides a way for students to see potential for their own future. Linked below is the spotlight for April/May.  The Computer Science theme spotlights Ada Lovelace and Farida Bedwei along with many mini-spotlights.

I have invited RPS teachers to utilize the pieces they find most appropriate for their students/grade-level.  I created this in Google Slides so that it may be utilized seamlessly with Google Classroom and/or Pear Deck as it suits the teacher's needs!

I hope you find somethin here you can share with your students. ~Heather

If you missed it, the spotlight for Feb/March was Engineering and focused on Dr. Latanya Sweeney and Dr. John Herrington. the Dec/Jan spotlight theme was Mathematics and focused on Muhammad Yunus and Vi Hart. Our Oct./Nov. spotlight highlighted Katherine Johnson and Susan Finley - with a focus on STEM in space.
