Early start to STEM education: Importance, advantages and future implications
4:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Early start to STEM education: Importance, advantages and future implications.

Virtual Presentation. Monday, October 16th, 4:00 - 5:00 PM. 

Late Elementary / early Middle school students (Grades 4-8).

Event by Counsel Academy.

The current world is driven by innovation, cutting-edge technology like Artificial Intelligence and a lot more. Therefore, nurturing young minds with STEM education has become more crucial than ever before. STEM, an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics, is not just a set of subjects but a gateway to endless possibilities in the future. Children develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity skills that empower them to face real-world challenges head-on. By introducing STEM from a young age, when their brains are actively growing, children learn to speak the language of the future.

Dr. Nivedita Lahiri, CEO of Counsel Academy, will be speaking to students about the importance of starting STEM education as early as middle school, and how a strong STEM foundation increases their opportunities and opens up multiple career options for them later in life. Join us virtually and take part in a special STEM quiz. Scorers above 80% get a special gift!
