STEM teachers sit down! Socrates is dead: Tom Dubick at TEDxCharlotteED

Tom Dubick teaches applied math and science to middle and high school students at Charlotte Latin School. He also sits on the LEGO Education Advisory Panel. In his talk, Tom describes about how effective STEM education programs are engaging, inquiry-based, and academically rigorous. He also points out the importance of the teacher serving as a facilitator instead of the "sage on the stage." (Filmed and produced by Central Piedmont Community College Digital Media Services.)

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
