Mathematics, the language of engineering, technology and science, is also the key to STEM. Math is considerably more than what it is defined as in the dictionary: "the abstract science of number, quantity and space." Math encompasses far more than Algebra, Geometry and Calculus. Math is the method and foundation for the strong development of learning, logical thinking and reasoning abilities. STEM Olympiad brings together students in grades 1-12 in the MATH Category with the PhET Interactive Simulations. Students can use this platform to study the topics on the syllabus menu. In addition to this platform, we recommend using other open sources for studying.
