Brian Smith (School of Teaching) and Learning, Richard Lahti (Chemistry) and Steve Lindaas (Physics and Astronomy) attended the 2015 Midwest Regional Robert Noyce Connections conference October 29-30 and presented the poster “Development of Learning Assistant Program at MSUM”. The theme for the conference was “Integrating STEM: Grounding STEM Learning for All” and included informative plenary talks and useful breakout sessions. This conference provides a way to network with other grant recipients to help successfully implement MSUM’s Noyce grant. MSUM’s grant, of nearly $1.2 million, will support scholarships for students simultaneously pursuing a STEM teaching licenses and a STEM major. http://scimath.unl.edu/noyce/conferences/2015/
