Parking Lot Speech

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.
