This course surveys basic approaches to K-12 science, computer science, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) tutoring through modeling inquiry-based teaching approaches. Topics include effective STEM pedagogy, assessment, lesson plan design and revision, attention to equity in underserved schools, and child development. Students are placed with K-12 students for STEM enrichment and tutoring experiences. This seminar offers an opportunity to explore K-12 teaching, foster children's natural curiosity, and inspire local students to engage in STEM learning.
