SLJ Review of STEM Is Everywhere!

“Any grown-up who has felt the urge to start an “In my day…” rant about the ease of access today’s students have will appreciate the educational content of these well-written, informative books. Not only do they lay out the history of how the technology came about, they also do a reasonably good job of explaining how the technology actually works. Wi-Fi includes a helpful diagram showing the electromagnetic spectrum of waves. While all the books spend some time describing safety concerns with technology, Self-Driving Cars and Robots All Around Us share the human concern that automation will take away people’s jobs. The Cloud reminds readers how cloud-based technology helped society transition quickly to home-based work and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Each book ends with a timeline of the tech’s development. With its blended descriptive science and tech development information, this series will make report writers very happy indeed. VERDICT Highly recommended.”
