Translating STEM: From Curriculum to Career

My Google+ friend Antonia Malchik wrote an article about STEM education last year that included some of my comments. When I hear someone say "STEM," or "our school has a STEM curriculum," I always wonder what they mean by that. For some, it's some kind of innovative new hybrid curriculum combining elements of science, tech, engineering, and math. That's probably what it's *supposed* to be, or what people aspire for it to be. But in reality, I think it just signifies extra attention to math and science, which itself is not a bad thing.
