Concurrent Sessions and Events

Educator Sessions

Close to 300 educator sessions have been scheduled at the STEM Forum & Expo. Sessions are classified by strand [PreK–2 (Early Childhood), Grades 3–5, Grades 6–9, Grades 10–12, Effective STEM Partnerships, and Administrators]. Sessions are further identified by audience level (Preschool, Elementary, Middle Level, High School, College, Supervision/Administration, Informal Education, or some combination of levels). One hour in length, all are open to registrants at no additional cost. Popular sessions fill quickly, however, and it is recommended that you arrive early to ensure a seat.

Exhibitor Workshops

Exhibitor-sponsored workshops for science teachers are offered throughout the STEM Forum & Expo. These workshops give you an opportunity to use a variety of commercial instructional materials. The number of participants for each is limited by the size of the room, but tickets are not required. Attendance is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Check back in March for complete list of exhibitor workshops.
