A Quick Overview Of Influencer Marketing

- by Mary Lebowitz

Influencer marketing is a great way for companies to reach new customers and build brand awareness. It can be used by small businesses or large ones but it’s typically used by big companies with bigger budgets.. The cost of influencer marketing can vary depending on the number of followers an influencer has and how much they charge per sponsored post. There are two types of influencers: micro-influencers and macro-influencers. Macro-influencers tend to have more than 100,000 followers and are typically celebrities and bloggers with large followings. They’re also easier to find because they’re more popular.. Micro-influencers also known as nano-influencers tend to have less than 100,000 followers but they’re usually more engaged with their followers than macro-influencers

- by Mary Lebowitz

STEM education is a growing field, and for good reason. STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and math, and it’s a broad subject that encompasses many different areas of study. It allows students to explore their interests in inventive ways, but it can also be difficult to teach effectively without boring the class. Here are some tips on how teachers can adapt their teaching techniques when teaching STEM subjects:

Introduce concepts in a way that is relevant for students.

  • Make sure the lesson is relevant to students.
  • Use examples that students can relate to.
  • Teach in a way that interests the students and their learning style, not yours!

The Need For Inclusive Education

- by Mary Lebowitz

Inclusive education is a way of teaching that allows all students to learn in an environment where they can feel comfortable, included and important. It allows special needs children to learn side-by-side with their peers. The benefits of inclusive education include better results, higher levels of motivation, improved social skills and reduced anti-social behaviour. Children who are taught in an inclusive environment are more likely to attend university and hold down well paid jobs in the future. There is a greater chance that children will be able to return home after school.

Preliminaries Toward Defining The Stem Curriculum For High School

- by Mary Lebowitz

STEM is the acronym for science, technology, engineering, and math. STEM education has been touted as a critical component of America’s future economic success. The goal of STEM education is to give students a strong foundation in these disciplines so that they can pursue them further in college or even as part of their careers. A study by McKinsey & Company shows that by 2020 there will be about 2 million unfilled jobs in STEM fields due to a lack of qualified applicants coming out of high school. This means that many students who want to pursue careers in this area may not have the opportunity if they don’t get enough exposure early on.
