The talkSTEM Professional Learning Network consists of school-based and out of school-based educators and administrators who continue to find interesting ways to use our video library and other resources.
If you are interested in joining our Professional Learning Network and are an educator / administrator / adult volunteer who is in a school-based or an out of school-based learning site, please sign up.
