Alamo First Responders, Essential Workers, and Modern Global Vocational Education (STEM & CTE) in a COVID 19 World, July 4, 2020, San Antonio, TX
San Antonio, Texas, July 4, 2020, By Jim Brazell – In 1709 the Franciscan expedition started and in 1718 the mission built San Antonio de Valero – later known as the Alamo—the first of five Spanish Missions in the San Antonio region. Today, San Antonio is the 7th largest MSA in the United States and we are a city of first responders. Now is a time of stepping up. A time of banding together. A time of sharing and of compassion for one another in the Golden Rule.

STEM 2.0: Transformational Thinking About Science, Technology, Engineering,
and Mathematics, Colorado Association of School Boards, 73rd Annual Convention, December 5-8, 2013, Keynote Speech, December 7, 2013.
The past decade has seen a shift from school reform to innovation driven by the force of the social changes engendered by science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) invention. Jim offers a conceptual framework to help school boards, teachers, students, and communities understand how STEM relates to social and educational change. Next-generation 2.0 Schools must focus on the moral imperative we have to prepare all students for their future, rather than our past. Learn about successful STEM schools, curricula, competitions, tools, and practices across the country that have shifted the conversation about school reform from external mandates to internal innovation.
