WeatherSTEM: A platform of teaching science with live data
Originally Held: July 7, 2014

The WeatherSTEM platform consumes live information to create and deliver interactive activities and assessments. The platform combines data from weather instruments, agricultural probes, web cameras, and other sensors to create immersive science education experiences and an introduction to “Big Data” and computer programming.

During this COIL Fischer Speaker Series event, Penn State Alumnus Edward Mansouri discussed his experiences building WeatherSTEM through a blending of his background in meteorology with his 15-year career building Learning Management System software.

WeatherSTEM is helping teachers and students explore new frontiers in STEM education by making the world around them part of their online learning.
