Congressman Honda Plans Additional STEM Legislation

As a follow-up to a posting on this site from 30 November 2011, Congressman Mike Honda blogs on The Hill that he plans new legislation relating to STEM educators "to develop STEM competencies and  leadership qualities to forge an entire new generation of teachers. This legislation will also focus on pre-K through sixth-grade teachers to produce elementary educators with competencies in science, technology, engineering and mathematics."  Representative Honda cites recent White House Science Fair winner Angela Zhang as one of his inspirations for continuing to promote STEM initiatives in the House.  http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/education/219757-helping-our-students-thrive-in-a-high-tech-environment
