During STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) at DRPS, we base our activities on the engineering design process. This process encourage our students to ask questions, brainstorm and discuss ideas. They learn to develop creative and detailed plans and use them to bring their ideas to life. Students then reflect on their work, make adjustments and improvements and then share their findings.
We encourage the students to be BOLD, take risks and make mistakes.
