About this Event

About the Book:

An invaluable resource for parents wishing to arm their children with the life skills necessary to succeed in a STEM-driven culture.

In today's world of STEM, all children--even those with interests outside of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics--need to develop specific skills in order to flourish in a complex landscape. Parents want to help their kids but are often overwhelmed by all the STEM products that aren't necessarily as valuable as they claim.

In STEM SMART Parenting, educators Alan Zollman, Lisa Hoffman, and Emily K. Suh unpack the research on STEM learning into a reader-friendly, practical guide for parents and caregivers. It introduces activities and resources that help kids of all ages build the necessary STEM mindset, includes no-cost ideas that parents can use with their children to promote STEM thinking, and shows readers how to evaluate which STEM games, toys, and activities actually deliver what they promise.

With real-life examples, daily activities, and key takeaways, this book shows parents how to help their children, from toddlers to teenagers, cultivate critical thinking skills and become intellectual risk takers, prepared for a world where STEM proficiency is essential.

About the Authors:

Drs. Alan Zollman, Lisa Hoffman, and Emily K. Suh are professors in the fields of mathematics education, educational research, and developmental education. They have taught learners of all ages in ten U.S. states and five countries on three continents. They have also authored over 150 publications and facilitated over 250 workshops in 30 states with both teachers and parents. Because they also have 11 children among them, they know the people most invested in their children’s development often have the least time to read about it! When they couldn’t find a succinct, relevant parenting book based on STEM research, they decided to write it themselves.
