These 5 steps are a useful process by which individuals/teams can organize efforts to learn about the impact of their program on participating teachers.
Five versions of the T-STEM survey have been developed: one for each teaching area of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), and one for elementary teachers.
