Distinguished professor, author, and Templeton Prize laureate Marcelo Gleiser will share his thoughts on current Brazilian public education policies, and what more could be done to help students develop the skills necessary to engage with science. Doing so will lead them to better understand, explain, and improve the world. With Marcos Paim, Educando’s director for STEM Brazil and Mexico, as moderator, they will discuss topics such as public funding for science education, the role of states in education, curricular and instructional innovations, and how to better support schools and teachers with material resources and professional development.
