Loren Thorp & I discuss "cooperation over competition" using STEM in the classroom.Is competition ever a valuable tool, or is it just a scarcity mentality on our students?When Loren and I talked, we discussed why it is essential for us as teachers to shift our mindset from the competition to build an environment where students learn to collaborate.
