When you think of an engineer, who comes to mind? Stereotypes about who STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) is "for" are everywhere. Children naturally use STEM skills every day. But by the time they are six, many children already think that “STEM is for boys." Join Dr. Amelia Bachleda from the National Center on Early Childhood Development, Teaching, and Learning to hear the latest research on stereotypes and STEM identity development. Explore strategies you can use to help preschoolers form positive STEM identities before these stereotypes take root.
This webinar is offered with English and Spanish captioning.
