Announcing The National STEMM Network at BCM

The Center for Educational Outreach is thrilled to announce exciting upcoming events and news for our STEMM Network! Over the next few months, we will be sharing fantastic opportunities to dive into engaging STEMM educational content, build valuable network connections, and participate in enriching professional development experiences.

All for Science™

Authentic Literacy and Language (ALL) for Science is a new curriculum framework designed to teach science aligned with state standards and the national Next Generation Science Standards. The framework also helps students learn to read, write, speak, and listen in ways that are authentic to the practice of science.

Celebrate National STEM/STEAM Day with the new HESS Ignite Learning STEAM teacher's guide!

Baylor College of Medicine and Hess Corporation have joined forces again to provide another engaging resource for teaching STEM/STEAM content to young learners. Activities in this guide use the Hess Fire Truck with Car and Motorcycle to explore force and motion, basic fire science and fire safety, geometry, and other critical elements relevant to the important role of firefighters in protecting lives and property. Additionally, the guide offers an activity that blends art with STEM, giving us the modified acronym STEAM.

Saving Baby Elephants from a Lethal Virus (EEHV)

Paul D. Ling, Ph.D., a microbiologist at Baylor College of Medicine, is a leading global expert on Elephant Endotheliotropic Herpesvirus (EEHV), a disease that is killing baby Asian elephants. Join him as he discusses the virus, key discoveries, and a treatment protocol developed by his research team which keeps the elephants alive.

The Learning Brain and BrainLink

Neuroscience lessons, teacher guides, expert presentations, and learner reading materials for a range of grades.

Sleep and Daily Rhythms

Are you getting enough sleep? Learn about factors, such as the day/night cycle, that affect the quality of sleep and why sleep is important.

Authentic Literacy and Language (ALL) for Science

Get a head start on STEMM with interrelated reading/language arts and science.
A product of K–3 STEMM Foundations: Life Science.

Clean Hands Knock Out Germs!

Why Handwashing Prevents Disease and How to Wash Hands Effectively

Static Electricity

Learn about static electricity and watch the sparks produced by a Van de Graaff generator. Find out how lightning is created. See how static charges attract and repel.

Focus on STEMM

STEMM activities are fun and educational. Baylor College of Medicine offers after-school programs that enable learners to become disease detectives or budding engineers.

MicroMatters: Microbiology

The Science of Microbes and The Science of HIV/AIDS units are designed to help your learners understand microbiology and microbes.

Think Like an Engineer

Learners follow an engineer's approach as they identify problems, brainstorm solutions, design a plan, and build, test, refine, and produce a product or solution.

STEM@Home Activities

Easy STEM-based science lessons for children and teens.

Baylor College of Medicine is offering a set of hands-on K-12 activities, grouped by grade level, that enable parents and children to engage in STEMM learning. We call this collection STEMM@Home. The lessons were selected specifically because they are easy to use at home and provide high-quality STEMM content without the need for specialized training, equipment, or materials. We invite you to investigate our STEM @Home activities and to explore the entire BioEd Online website for free STEMM educational materials.
