Tech savvy Millennials love learning that is individually adapted to them with just enough detail that is needed at that particular moment in time. While very motivated and goal-oriented, Millennials want to learn in a team-oriented environment. Teaching to these students should use methods that connects to their needs while also meeting set educational standards. Creative Google Slides Uses for Students. We all know Google Slides is an excellent multimedia presentation tool.
But it can be so much more than that. There are many non-traditional ways students can use Google Slides for learning, creating, and expressing their understanding. I recently had the privilege and pleasure of joining Thomas Rup and Eric Lawson for a YouTube Live event to discuss "Souped-Up Slides". Thomas is the Network Administrator and Eric is the Director of Technology & Libraries for the York School Department in York, Maine.
Together they are "The Blended EdTech Guys" and they create and share educational technology videos that are just as funny as they are informative. See below for the recorded video where we talk about loads of creative ways students can use Google Slides, as well as other tech topics that came up in the process. □ Tech Integration Updates - Science and STEM.

What is STEM Education? Simply put, STEM is an acronym for science, technology, engineering and math. Because these subject areas have a strong correlation to each other, STEM curriculums use an interdisciplinary approach and real-world examples for instruction. Students are immersed in hands-on learning—think suspension bridges made out of straws and finding out the properties of water using a penny—and encouraged to solve problems using all four subject areas. But, STEM is more than just memorizing the periodic table or mastering calculus. Critical thinking, collaboration and creativity are essential components.
STEM education has been around for years but it’s received more attention recently from both the private and public sectors. History of STEM Science, technology, engineering and math aren’t exactly new concepts. It was the Space Race in the 1950s that may have helped propel STEM into the mainstream. And, the name stuck. STEM Websites for Educators. There are many organizations, schools, educators and business entities that champion STEM implementation and enhancement around the United States.
The problem is that the STEM initiative cannot thrust forward unless there is an awareness of what the resources are out there and available.

According to a recent report by the U.S. Department of Commerce, although women fill close to half of all jobs in the U.S. economy, they hold less than 25 percent of STEM jobs. And the STEM gender gap starts well before students enter the job market: women hold a disproportionately low share of STEM undergraduate degrees, particularly in engineering. The crux of the STEM gender gap problem—and the solution—may lie in middle school math classrooms.
