While there have been many developments and advancements in the education sector, the use of S.T.E.A.M Action allows for the support and encouragement for the development of future leaders. The organization’s main mission is to develop future business leaders who are equipped for the S.T.E.A.M (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) workforce. This would be done by ensuring that every student from elementary through graduate school receives the hand-on experience to compliment what they are being taught in class. This particular product is aimed at making the transition to cyber-learning easy and fun.
The rapidly growing S.T.E.A.M workforce has opened up new markets for after school programs that are aimed at addressing the challenges and opportunities that students face in S.T.E.A.M education as well as those that anticipate new structures such as cyber-learning. Despite the enormous amount of after school services available in the tri-county of Florida, the demand for organizations such as S.T.E.A.M Action that are equipped to provide opportunities for practical training is ever growing. S.T.E.A.M Action will partner with a diverse group of business consultants from different industries who will support the organization in various ways to ensure skill development among the students.
The conventional student system is one that is not working. Many students learn poorly in a classroom; research has shown that many students do not focus well early in the morning, for instance. The current weaknesses in the conventional student system has resulted in lowered standards of education. This opens a door for S.T.E.A.M. in action to enhance and supply new learning techniques to children who may not excel in the traditional classroom. S.T.E.A.M. in action provides children with a way to improve their learning development and a more applicable set of challenges, focusing on building self-sufficiency, self-reliance, and creativity.
Children who take part in the S.T.E.A.M. in action program have less guidance from their parents; S.T.E.A.M.in action students have professionals available to guide them step by step through the process, ensuring that they meet educational and life goals. Ensuring that children meet these goals is the primary function of S.T.E.A.M. in action, and by utilizing the combined experience of the professionals in the program, children are more likely to succeed and thrive. The purpose of S.T.E.A.M. in action is not to remove parents from children’s educational experience, however; it is merely focused on ensuring that children receive the best education possible through the program.
S.T.E.A.M. in action does, however, encourage the parent-child bond. S.T.E.A.M. in action has a number of focused mentorship programs that allow students and parents to approach education together. It focuses on a hands-off mentorship program, which allows students to develop projects and ideas on their own with only guidance from their parents and educational professionals.
Succession Plans
The variety of feedback obtained is also very important for the success of the project. Not all students are the same, and not all situations are the same; as a result, each step of the project must have its own feedback considerations. Feedback would be obtained at the commencement, during and at the end of each project activity to ensure that the mistakes that are identified are rectified and the process is improved for the better to ensure its success. The parents are also part and parcel of the project as decisions made by the project management mainly affect their children. Understandably, parents can sometimes become so heavily invested that they disrupt the process; this is why good communication and receiving feedback is so important for the program as a whole.
The employees and the volunteers to the project would also be subjected to training that would cover different aspects as highlighted by the feedback of the parents and students. These training would ensure that the project staff possesses the necessary skills for management and the successful execution of the project activities. It would also be a way of motivating the staff, and encouraging them to perform to the best of their abilities. Encouraging instructors to go above and beyond expectations and then rewarding them when they do so leads to a better learning environment for both students and teachers. Succession planning would offer stability to all project stakeholders and would also ensure the protection and preservation of the project staff. The succession plans offer excellent means of addressing pressing challenges like growth of the project. If successfully implemented, the succession plan would create a long lasting legacy for the project and literally save the project from crisis.
