Reviews

I recommend this text for those who have an interest in, what seems, the constant push for STEM Education. With the challenges, tensions, and ambiguities that come with implementing STEM initiatives, the papers in this text give the reader a sense of greater hope and a positive outlook that science, technology, engineering, and mathematics can be used in many creative ways in the classroom. (Peter Olszewski, MAA Reviews, September 13, 2020)
