To STEM or not to STEM...
While the title is a bit misleading, I think it is worth examining our (everyone's?) love of STEM. Certainly there is value in exploring all of the science, experimentation, building and learning that happen in our programming, but I appreciate the focus here on all of the ways non-STEM activities, learning and experiencing actually contribute to the tech fields. a good reminder that kindness, compassion and the arts help make us better innovators too.
