STEM: Science, Tech, Engineering, Math
Christine Horne
STEM Coordinator Technology Instructor Grades JK-8 Education Westminster College Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education and Christian Education Lake Erie College Master of Science in Education Curriculum and Instruction [email protected] Philosophy I believe that teachers are guides on the journey of education and not dispensers of information. I believe that it is my duty to work with students and teachers to guide students to the knowledge they seek. Students enter my class as answer-getters. They leave as problem-solvers. In technology, we learn about tools and skills that will be useful in high school and beyond. Digital Citizenship, computer coding, 3D design and printing, and the engineering design process form the basis of our curriculum as we form 21st century learners. Spanish & Culture Appreciation
