An Exciting Education Initiative

BioSTEMTM is an exciting education initiative that inspires students and helps them develop superior STEM skills across multiple grades and courses by studying plant science in the classroom.

BioSTEM blends lab-grade technology in the form of the Conviron GEN1000 plant growth chamber, with a ground-breaking companion website that will guide teachers and students and link them together in collaborative experimentation and research. Together, this provides educators with a powerful new instructional tool in the classroom to deliver course material and build STEM skills related to disciplines and topics such as:

  • plant science
  • biology
  • ecology
  • genetics
  • data analysis
  • environmental science
  • climate change
  • soil, water and water conservation

BioSTEM has been developed by Conviron, a world leader in the design, manufacture and installation of plant growth chambers and rooms for plant science and other applications.
