LMIT Invention Education Initiatives
Building Regional Pathways
We are excited to announce “Invention Education Pathways” grants and stipends to three regions: Northern California, Tennessee, and Massachusetts/Connecticut. These grants and stipends will support educators with new efforts to teach elementary, middle, and high school students ways inventors find and solve problems to improve lives.
Bring Invention Ed to Your Classroom
Seamlessly incorporate STEAM into your current curriculum with Lemelson-MIT coaching and support. Partners in Invention Education (PiE) is a membership program for K-14 educators and administrators that focuses on increasing the number of inventors and entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds by building strong pathways to invention.
Invention and Clean Energy Careers
Through two MassCEC grants, LMIT is working with Haverhill High School and Watertown High School to explore clean energy careers and to engage in projects that will jump start their work on inventions and innovations.
