The Academy for Teaching and Learning and the Department of Natural Sciences of FSCJ launched the Inaugural 2018 Science Symposium on October 19th. The theme of the symposium, From Root 2 STEM, embodied the idea of integrating learning across disciplines/curriculum. The symposium featured presentations and demonstrations from esteemed FSCJ professors and employees across multiple disciplines with keynote speakers from Polk State College sharing their international learning adventure.

The symposium was not only for FSCJ faculty but also invited Duval County instructors, giving them the opportunity to help meet their continuing education requirement and to establish greater communication. Additionally, we had participants from St Johns County, Edwards Waters College and other surrounding areas. More importantly, the symposium was an overall success, and we look forward to the next year.
