70 early childhood teachers attended a six hour hands-on teacher training workshop conducted by Dr. Diana Wehrell-Grabowski. Teachers were introduced to approximately 90 children's literature titles that can be incorporated into the early childhood classroom to reinforce science, language arts, math, art, social studies, and cultural concepts. Teachers conducted a wide-array of hands-on explorations to investigate: shapes and patterns, building with blocks and other materials, animal camouflage, exploring the characteristics of meal worms, and plant concepts. Teachers had a fantastic time and expanded upon their content knowledge as they built structures, made animal camouflage masks, made a sprouting bird seed necklace, explored with bubbles and more.

Drawing of two mice. On the left is a normal mouse — in such animals, spleens grow to 80-160 mg. On the right is a mouse that had its spleen removed and then was transplanted with six spleen pieces. These grew to about 21 mg each, for a total of 126 mg.
An experiment in the 1960s showed that implanted mouse spleens can sense how much other spleen tissue is around and limit the size that they grow to. The result is a mouse with the right amount of spleen material. On the left is a mouse with a normal-sized spleen. On the right is a mouse whose own spleen was removed before transplantation with six pieces of spleen tissue.

Reinventing STEM: How Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Can Help Address Global Challenges - CGI U 2013
While STEM education has been widely recognized as a critical determinant of innovation and economic competitiveness around the world, many opportunities still exist to make STEM education more relevant, engaging, and effective for students. There is growing recognition that directly applying STEM knowledge and training can enable students to have a tangible impact on some of the most pressing concerns facing the world today. To that end, an increasing number of educators, NGO leaders, and government officials are using attempts to solve “grand challenges” as models for applying STEM education in new ways. These grand challenges range from providing access to clean water to making solar energy more economical, and allow students to boost their job prospects and realize the necessity of STEM degrees in our world today. How can STEM education become even more relevant and attract those from the most marginalized and underrepresented populations? This panel will explore how STEM education can simultaneously prepare students for both the jobs of tomorrow and solve the grand challenges of the 21st century.
