T&L 2900: Pages & Pathways: The Science of Learning: PreK-12 STEM Conference

This conference will provide professional learning opportunities for teachers focused on STEM education and other topics, made possible by financial support from ND-EPSCoR. It has been difficult for teachers to gather in person for professional learning over the past few years, so we are trying to include sessions that cover a range of topics that might interest teachers. We have included a list of possible topics below:

STEM education
Computer science and cybersecurity
Curriculum and instructional materials
Pedagogy
Grading and assessment
Diversity, equity, and inclusion
Sustainability

The College of Education and Human Development at the University of North Dakota, along with ND EPSCoR will be hosting a 1-day conference for PreK-12 teachers on Thursday, August 1st. Teachers from across the state of ND and MN will be invited to attend "Pages & Pathways: The Science of Learning: PreK-12 STEM Conference" and receive continuing education credit through the University of North Dakota. The first 200 North Dakota educators that register for the conference may also apply for one non-degree professional development credit at no cost to the registrant.

** Important Notice for North Dakota Educators:** Please do not submit payment on your own for this credit offering. Upon checkout, please select the "Mail a Check" option and submit your order without payment. After submitting your registration, you will receive two order confirmation emails:

Generic confirmation email, and

**For non-North Dakota Educators:** You will be responsible for paying the $50 credit fee.
