IEEE REACH is hosting a webinar on February 27, 2023 at 3:00 PM EST in conjunction with the STEM Leadership Alliance. Register now for this webinar focused on exploring the history and impact of skyscrapers in the modern world and is a great opportunity for pre-university educators to enhance their STEM education curriculum, and learn more about REACH.

Deepen inquiry and student engagement with the social relevance of STEM, through the lens of history! As noted by renowned engineer and historian Henry Petroski, “To Engineer is Human.” Since the days of the pyramids, human beings have tried to build toward the sky, but this trend exploded in the modern period in conjunction with urbanization, industrialization, and increasing population density. IEEE REACH (reach.ieee.org), a crosscutting, interdisciplinary program, provides educators with free resources that link abstract concepts, such as how problems have been solved in the past with real-life situations today, providing a new lens from which students may view engineering and technology as relevant to their lives. Walk away inspired from the webinar with free lesson units, formative and summative performance tasks, hands-on activities, and short engaging videos that may be used immediately in the classroom.”
