September in-person conference cancelled*

*Format Change Information

*The COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact how we work and learn. It is hard to predict what the educational environment will look like this fall; therefore, we are offering an online conference in early November 2020 in lieu of an in-person conference on September 17th.

This online conference will continue to focus on great STEM and STEAM pedagogies, and will address the needs of STEM teachers seeking virtual options that provide quality STEM lessons in the midst of this pandemic.

It is our expectation that a live in-person conference will occur again in fall 2021.

The STEM Conference is a collaboration between NKU’s CINSAM and the University of Cincinnati’s Engineering Enhanced Math and Science Program. Together, we aim to supply educators with high-quality, applicable tools to improve STEM education in our region.

Each year, hundreds of regional K-12 teachers & school administrators converge to explore STEM education instruction, technology, and cutting edge techniques.

Conference Features:

Showcase of Regional Resources
STEM Initiative Models
Interactive Workshop Sessions
Poster Sessions
Up to 6 Professional Development Contact Hours
Raffles of educational Items
