Our Approach
To build a strong STEM foundation, we developed the 3 Stages of STEM to move beyond repetitive building activities towards meaningful learning goals. This structured method ensures that students develop core skills, apply knowledge to engineering challenges, and extend their learning through open-ended projects.
