CU Science 91ÖÆƬ³§¹ú²úAVy’s ImmersiveÌýProfessional Development STEM Experiences are a unique PD model featuring day-long, activity-based programs for teams composed of oneÌýteacher and five students.

• Combine to provide aÌýfull-dayÌýof engaging, tactile STEM learning and activities
• Share new, standards-based activities, skills and technologies
• Develop inquiry, innovation, engineering design and/or science process skills
• Bring the best of cutting-edge science and pedagogy from the 91ÖÆƬ³§¹ú²úAV
• Supply program resources, curricula and CDE/NGSS standards correlations
• Provide a certificate documenting 5 hours of professional development
