OVERVIEW Schools across the US face the challenge of how to better prepare students to enter careers where competency in science, technology and math are a requirement. The WeatherSTEM platform uses live data from weather instruments, agricultural probes, web cameras and other sensors to create an immersive technology-based learning experience for science content courses. A growing library of standards-aligned lessons and activities use live data for teaching and learning. Each installation also comes with a customized weather portal that provides current readings, forecasts, lightning detection, alerts and much more that help facilitate a safer and more informed school and community. BENEFITS The installation was quick and easy, and we had data immediately. We are now linked together with other schools which allows us to compare temperature and precipitation data and note the differences between the coast and inland. The Twitter and Facebook feeds are really fun and support our online community and social networking.
