Quote by Lucy Carter

“The customary units of measurement? They have practical applications, but learning them is mostly done through rote memorization— There aren’t any proofs or critical evaluations regarding REASONS why a foot equals twelve inches There are only facts to memorize, but not puzzles to solve, With algebra—YES! There isn’t just memorization— There is the rearrangement of jigsaw pieces— jigsaw pieces that you can solve, not just memorize!”

To analyze history, one must memorize a fact, but STEM enables students to analyze the logic behind a STEM occurrence or phenomenon throughout. STEM is a subject of problem solving. STEM is problem solving.”

“To quote Zig Ziglar, "The elevator to success is out of order, but the stairs are always available." Expect to do the work and expect to reach success after a process. The worst thing that you can feel is an entitlement to success. Even if you have worked hard, nobody is entitled to success - hard work is merely an element of success, not a promise of it.”
