STEM IN THE SUMMER: How employers can support STEM learning and exploration in the return to “normal” summer months

“Lead with grace and be collaborative. You can’t do everything in a silo.”

“Don’t ever let a crisis be wasted.”

“When you give students the right resources, every student can learn.”

These are among the key takeaways from the May 21 webinar, STEM IN THE SUMMER: How employers can support STEM learning and exploration in the return to “normal” summer months, sponsored by TIES, the STEM Learning Ecosystems Community of Practice and STEM Connector.

Hear how panelists – Drew Glassford, CEO, Boys and Girls Club of Greater Dundee; Hillary McDonald, Corporate Social Responsibility Lead, North America, Tata Consultancy Services; and Ivana Jackson, internX Program Manager, Fund II Foundation – have navigated virtual learning, summer experiences and the connections between business and industry and learning spaces.
