STEM Careers


Introduce Your Students to STEM Careers with iON Future
Description: iON Future logoOn November 20 at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET), Change the Equation (CTEq) is hosting a webcast to launch iON Future, a suite of free online learning games to introduce youth, middle to early high school age, to a variety of STEM-base professions. To view a "sizzle reel" about iON Future, click here.
CTEq is  looking for teacher ambassadors who would like to participate, with their students, in the webcast event on November 20 at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT, broadcasting from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.  We hope teachers see this as a valuable, yet different, way to capture youth's attention in this time leading up to the Thanksgiving holiday!   
  • This one-pager details the 35-minute webcast, which takes students on virtual tours of STEM in action, challenges them to think from a STEM perspective, and introduces them to iON Future.
  • Interested teachers can tune in here November 20 at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT.
If the time and date of the live webcast are not convenient, the webcast can be viewed directly from CTEq's website beginning the week after Thanksgiving. A learning guide is available, with some recommended lesson plans, that will introduce iON Future to students.
Teachers are encouraged to share the iON Future suite of games with their colleagues and other STEM stakeholders.
