Access to computer science courses in high schools has jumped significantly over the past three years—from 35 percent to 51 percent, concludes a new study by the nonprofit Code.org. But access to those courses still remains uneven in many places. Rural and urban schools, and schools that serve a high percentage of kids from low-income families are less likely to offer foundational computer science.
The sky is the limit when it comes to STEM projects. Whether it’s creating a flashlight, fashioning a solar-powered light, or learning about factors and prime numbers, if a student or educator can dream it up, it’s possible with the power of STEAM!
Practice makes perfect, and math proficiency at all levels definitely takes practice. Whether students are working on basic addition and subtraction or advanced algebra and geometry concepts, these online interactive math games work as a fun way to practice important skills. The best part? They’re all available for free on the web!
