Description
As STEM educators, it can be hard to keep up with what’s happening in our fields outside of the classroom because we have to prioritize the content and skills we share with the students in front of us. But we teach what we do, hopefully, because we love it, and part of our professional development should be to keep that love alive. In this session, we will share ideas for how to stay current, excited and engaged in your own field and in STEM as a whole, when your classroom content only covers the basics that repeat every year. Bring your own favorite “current events” or resources from your own subject, or just come to learn!

I'M TIRED OF PUNNETT SQUARES, BUT GENETICS IS STILL MY JAM
