• Innovators — creatively use science, mathematics, and technology concepts and principles by applying them to the engineering design process.

• Inventors — recognize the needs of the world and creatively design, test, redesign, and then implement solutions (engineering process).

What should STEM education accomplish?

Students should be:

• Self-reliant — able to use initiative and self-motivation to set agendas, develop and gain self-confidence, and work within time specified time frames.
