STEM Teaching Fellows Programs
McKinney Center’s STEM Teaching Fellows Programs are sponsored by The School District of Philadelphia, PECO, and Johnson Matthey. The Fellows Programs are intensive—and fun—professional development series designed for classroom teachers and informal educators who seek to enrich their students’ STEM content knowledge, skillsets, and literacy.
Participants attend workshops and complete capstone projects, which are original and engaging STEM lesson plans to implement in their learning environments. They receive assistance implementing their projects, a stipend, and Act 48 or PQAS credits.
Research shows that the most important factor in student learning is a highly effective classroom teacher.
