Invention Convention Programs Participating in National Competition with Curriculum: Before STEMIE Blue = Statewide program Green = Developing program 11/24/2018 Oct © The STEMIE Coalition All Rights Reserved

UTC has been with us since the beginning…
United Technologies was one of two founding sponsors who believed that not only was Invention Convention an important program in its own right, but that it elucidated an opportunity for the K-16 innovation ecosystem to work together towards a common goal. 11/24/2018 Oct © The STEMIE Coalition All Rights Reserved

And has gained some friends along the way…
UTC remains the STEMIE Coalition’s first and most important sponsor. With UTC as our anchor, The STEMIE Coalition has been earnest and successful in securing further corporate and foundation partners to help aid its continuing mission and ongoing growth. Over $1.4m raised to date. 11/24/2018 Oct © The STEMIE Coalition All Rights Reserved

STEMIE is partnering with organizations important to UTC Society for Women Engineers American Geosciences Institute (Helping us create sustainability curriculum) Purdue University 3. STEMIE is working on demographics important to UTC #ISeeHerInvent campaign to augment curriculum and opportunities for women inventors Expanding opportunities and partnerships focused on 9-16 and post-college engagement 11/24/2018 Oct © The STEMIE Coalition All Rights Reserved

Why is STEMIE Important?
Students aren’t learning how to apply STEM skills. Only 43% of students are proficient at applying STEM in the real world Only 18% for African American students Research shows project-based learning is needed. Project-based learning (PBL): learning by doing When combined with technology, PBL helps ensure that motivation and thought are sustained Early evidence shows STEMIE works. Research by Georgia Tech and Connecticut Invention Convention shows a decided increase in STEM interest 11/24/2018 Oct © The STEMIE Coalition All Rights Reserved
