STEM Everyday
The STEM Everyday podcast focuses on how easy it is to incorporate STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) into education. We explore and share great ideas that inspire students to take ownership in their learning. Episodes include short (20 minute) interviews with educators, innovators, & authors who are using creative ways to add STEM to their classrooms and communities everyday!

The Clueless is a FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) team made up of 13 members from 8 middle/high schools across San Diego, California. Through FTC, they are determined to grow as a team, have fun, and leave a lasting impact on their community.
In their 9 years of competing, they have set the world record twice ('22 & '24) and qualified to the World Championship 6 times, where they've won the divisional Inspire Award three times and won the robot game once.
One of their outreach goals is to make STEM and robotics more accessible to local and global communities, through projects like their First Lego League (FLL) summer camp, EV3 redistribution program, and Global Mentorship Program for FTC teams.
FIRST is a global non-profit that has engaged over 800,000 high school students in building and competing with robots.
"At the core, we love FIRST Tech Challenge. Our passion drives our success!"
