Reviews

"“In STEM by Design, author, Anne Jolly, provides innovative pathways for students to become creative thinkers and collaborators, ultimately leading to academic and personal success. As an educator, you will discover new project-based learning tools that will engage ALL students. Highly recommended!” Michelle Hurdle, President, Flight Works Alabama “Anne Jolly does it again! STEM by Design confirms that Anne is still the master of the “how-to” book, leveraging her considerable skill and expertise to help teachers design exciting, engaging STEM lessons. I will be sharing this important new resource with my university colleagues.” Dr, Steve Bingham, Professor(ret.), Stout School of Education, High Point University ""As a science teacher with 17 years of teaching experience, I find this book to be easy to read and user-friendly when leading STEM projects with students. I highly recommend this book to anyone who values a strong, easy-to-understand approach to engineering design with children and adolescents alike."" Ryan Nunley, 6th Grade Science Teacher “STEM by Design features graceful prose and practical advice. It provides the knowledge, encouragement, and tools for teachers’ success and growth, regardless of their prior STEM experience. Especially valuable is the chapter on integrating life skills and STEM learning, demonstrating their natural fit.” Carolyn DeCristofano, Author, STEM Education Consultant, Mindful Awareness Instructor."
