The Open STEM Teacher

The Open STEM Teacher

An Open Education Resource (OER) around student learning for STEM student teachers.

Welcome to STEM Capstone here at CU Denver. In the interest of saving money for students and being able to crowdsource information from talented student teachers, we will be using some resources from the professor as well as what you have learned in your time in your education courses as well as what you have learned from your internship.
