Answering Questions

So my question was "Why would teachers choose STEM for one of our career clusters?" Why? Because STEM is a very important role in your life and your career. You have to be able to know, Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. And they teach these things in school. School gets you ready for the real world. You learn things everyday in school, you may not know it, you may think it's boring, but once you get out into the real world and you start your career, trust me you are going to wish you were still in school. Science is very important because you have to know things about your environment. You have to know what's going on. Science isn't just about testing chemicals, or experimenting on animals, or even wearing a big white coat all day. It also has to do with the weather. I mean wouldn't you like to know what the weather was like before you set up an important job interview, or maybe you are throwing a birthday party, you want to pick a good day where the weather is nice, not a stormy dull day. So Science is important. Another big factor is Technology. The way society is going know, in the near future you are going to have to learn about a lot of technology. In about maybe twenty years or so, everything is going to involve technology. And in school, that's what Computer Concepts is for! So pay attention. Also, I don't know if it goes for your school as well but in my school there is a extracurricular activity, I think it's called wood shop or something like that, that has to do with technology. Engineering, let's move onto that. We all know someone who drives a car but doesn't know anything about the car they are driving. And believe me, I know a person, because that person is me as well. Some of you think "Well, that's what guys are for?" Well, that's true, but what if you're driving alone and you break down, AND you don't have any money to have someone fix your car. So I think girls have to learn how to fix cars as well, because that's important. But engineering doesn't just have to be about cars. It can also involve working in a factory. There has to be maintainence there to know how to be able to fix a machine. It's a hard job, believe me, I've seen it with my own eyes when my dad took me on a tour at his job. Engineering means everything around you, like when you're on your cell phone, the people that made that phone, they're also Engineers. Mathematics, math is especially important, because everything around you involves math. Shopping, putting gas into your car and trying to figure out how much money you have and how much you can afford, just things like that. A lot of people may not know this, but you use math every single day of your life. So math is a very important thing in your life. So pay attention in school!!!
