Video Highlights

  • Engaging students imaginations is key to problem solving, says LeVar Burton. And sparking that curiosity begins with a simple question: "What if?"
  • The arts have every right to be a part of STEM education, because it's all about problem-solving, says Jeff Charbonneau
  • Kevin Carroll likes to think of the A in STEAM not just as arts, but also activity. "STEAM then become emotion and inertia plus the arts," he says.
