The Teich Group and Catapult X announce the finalists for the Educators Pick Best of STEM® 2024 Awards, the only awards program judged by STEM educators. The awards program, operated in partnership with the National Association of Biology Teachers (NABT) and MCH Strategic Data, spotlights innovative products, technologies, and services that are changing the world of STEM education. New this year, companies compete for the Best AI for Teaching & Learning.
Educator judges evaluated all product entries and selected the finalists listed below, and hundreds of thousands of STEM educators will have the opportunity to select the winners, who will be announced on August 28, 2024.
Led by Annie Galvin Teich, President of The Teich Group, this year’s judges included Dr. Linda Johnson-McClinton, Dr. Lance Brand, Dr. Jeffrey Crapper, Dr. Omah M. Williams-Duncan, Jamica Craig, Erin Barr, and Dr. Rachelle Dené Poth.
“The Educators Pick Best of STEM Awards continue to grow each year as more companies compete with innovative products,” said lead judge Annie Galvin Teich. “This year we saw an uptick in AI-related products, of course, but many products are using other best-of-class technologies that meaningfully engage students in the classroom.”
