Motivate Students - Encourage Creative Expression - Promote an Innovative Spirit

Discovery World's S.T.E.M +PLUS program amplifies the existing Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (S.T.E.M.) education model by connecting it to concepts that motivate students beyond the classroom by including new media, design, creativity and innovation. S.T.E.M. +PLUS educates for the workforce, prepares for postsecondary education and introduces students to entrepreneurial thinking. The S.T.E.M. +PLUS programs accelerate education to a whole new level, connecting learning to everyday life.
