STEAM for Teaching and Learning

Join educators from around Northern Nevada to explore ideas about incorporating Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math (STEAM) learning into your classrooms. A dynamic keynote address by famed landscape architect Cheryl Barton, titled “The Theory of Here” will address climate change and resilience through design. The day also includes hands-on workshops and ways to translate ideas learned into classroom activities. A continental breakfast, lunch and a late afternoon reception will be provided. The Nevada Museum of Art, the Desert Research Institute, Northern Nevada RPDP and Sustainable Nevada are working together to offer a unique training opportunity. There is no cost to attend this training and participants are eligible to receive 0.5 in-service credit.
