Purdue University’s MSTEM3 Grant Initiative Goes Live
A partnership between Purdue and the Edge Factor will bring discounted educational materials to schools to help inspire students.
Purdue University and Edge Factor are partnering to change the image of manufacturing by bringing multimedia educational materials to classrooms. With Purdue’s launch of the MSTEM3 Grant Initiative, the two organizations are helping schools to inspire students using eduFactor media from Edge Factor. Thanks to the initiative, which is underwritten in part by Mastercam and the Gene Hass Foundation, Purdue will make these materials accessible to as many schools as possible for just $99 per year.
Based on Edge Factor productions, eduFactor is a membership-based, online suite of resources. It offers media from Edge Factor’s "LaunchPoint," "Edge Factor Show," and "Reality Redesigned" TV series, as well as virtual presentations, Edge Factor Live events and more. Membership includes a package of accompanying tools and resources such as lesson plans, event bundles, hands-on projects, career pathway lesson plans and more.
Schools can apply for the MSTEM3 Grant to receive the reduced subscription rate. The grant is available on a first-come, first-serve basis to schools that apply on mstem3.org and qualify. Once a school has been approved, it will receive a discount code to submit before checkout on edufactor.org.
