Welcome to the Southeast Michigan STEM Network
|
Michigan, together with business, education, and community partners, is embarking on a journey to create a MiSTEM Network throughout the state. This opportunity grew out of Governor Snyder’s MiSTEM Advisory Council recommendation to make Michigan a world leader in STEM education.
What is "STEM Education"?
MiSTEM Network Four Pillars |
Creating a STEM Cultureby using a systemic approach to enable community engagement, experiential learning, place-based education and by building capacity in our leaders, teachers and learners to create solutions to real-world situations.
|
Empower STEM Teachersby creating opportunities for professional development, capacity building and support, and by connecting teachers with community partnerships that enable a diverse array of STEM-related engagement.
|
Integrating Business and Educationby bringing leaders together, establishing a common language, co-designing multidisciplinary real-world projects, and by providing authentic learning opportunities to help train a robust and diverse technologically literate workforce.
|
Ensure High-Quality STEM Experiencesthat focus on real-world situations, immerses students in place-based, hands-on, experiential open-ended exploration, engages students in productive teamwork and integrates rigorous math and science content where failure is seen as a necessary part of the learning process.

State MiSTEM Network
"Michigan is famous for having random acts of high quality STEM experience in different communities around the state. One of the important reasons MiSTEM was created is to lift those examples up and help excite all our young Michiganders about the fun learning opportunities that can exist in their hometown." Adam Zemke, MiSTEM Advisory Council - May 12, 2020 |
