Governor Markell’s STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) Education Council has given new energy to the dialogue about how to create a more competitive workforce by improving STEM education in Delaware schools (see related story). As the Council prepares to begin its work this month, DFM News talks to one group that has been focusing for decades on strengthening STEM education.
Founded in 1989, the Delaware AreoSpace Education Foundation (DASEF)‘s mission is to “raise the visibility and value of K-12 STEM education to meet intellectual and workplace needs of the future.” DFM News’ Tom Byrne sat down with Stephanie Wright, President and CEO of DASEF to talk about STEM education in Delaware.
