About Instructional Insider: Teaching, Learning, and Curriculum at NCSSM-Morganton
In my role as the Instructional Designer and Curriculum Specialist at NCSSM, I share the amazing instruction and learning that is taking place on our campus so that it can be a tool for educators both at NCSSM and across the globe. Each week I also interview STEM professionals to expand knowledge to educators, students, and families to empower them with information about available STEM careers.
In today’s interview, I switched up the process and I interviewed two STEM college students from Davidson-Davie Community College, Valeria Munoz-Cabral and Juan Morales Aguirre. Both of these students are part of FUTURES which is a STEM outreach program that empowers community college faculty, staff, students, and alumni to connect with their local community through sharing their personal stories. Valeria and Juan share their journey with us as current STEM majors.
