What’s the #1 skill that will open up opportunities in many top fields of the future — some of which haven’t been invented yet?

The answer is not just proficiency in subject areas. It’s the ability to solve problems, according to surveys of engineers and business leaders.

Through our own experiences working with our kids, the parents involved with Arlington STEAM have become convinced of:

  • the value of challenge-based learning opportunities
  • the value of multidisciplinary STEAM education
  • and the importance of teaching skills such as teamwork, communication, and project management.

Here’s a collection of some of our favorite TED Talks about these ideas.
