Penn State DuBois recently hosted a set of STEAM Day activities for students from DuBois Area Middle School, including a distance race competition for vehicles they designed. STEAM education is an approach to learning that uses science, technology, engineering, the arts and mathematics as points for guiding student inquiry, dialogue, and critical thinking.
Students prepare to start their vehicle in the distance race at the PAW Center during STEAM Day at Penn State DuBois, under the guidance of Brad Lashinsky, program director for the North Central PA LaunchBox powered by Penn State DuBois.
