Parking Lot Speech
Parking Lot Speech: The importance of STEM education in
relation to my project is that STEM education needs financial support to help
all levels of students because more and more jobs are open for STEM fields and
they will continue to grow. These students need support for their STEM
education as well as help for minorities as well to incorporate a more diverse
STEM field. The value of a strong STEM education allows students to apply their
skills to whatever career they enter and use their hands-on engaging projects
to fuel their creativity in the workplace and future endeavors. A strong
understanding of STEM topics will also support students understanding for a
societal aspect, so they can make informed decisions for environmental
protection as well as political comprehension.
My parking lot speech has changed in that I see more value
in diversity and supporting minorities as well as current students who are low
achievers in STEM fields and feel supporting them is just as important if not
more important than helping the already high flying STEM students. It has been
reinforced by the research and my project issue of policies and funding in STEM
education and my project plan to increase programs to support students
struggling in STEM education.
