The Growing Importance of STEM Education

Research consistently supports the early introduction of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) concepts. A report from the National Science Foundation (NSF) suggests that students exposed to STEM activities in early grades are more likely to develop critical thinking skills and a strong foundation for future learning. Schools that have introduced coding and robotics in Grade 1 are seeing students become more confident in tackling complex problems. For example, a case study found that Grade 4 students who participated in weekly robotics sessions were 30% more likely to excel in math and science assessments.
