The SteemSTEM Status Report Dec 21 - Jan 17

The steemSTEM project in a nutshell

Just about two months ago, we have decided to relaunch the steemSTEM initiative. To sum up a long story, the steemSTEM project is a community-supported project aiming to increase the quality and the visibility of STEM (STEM is the acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) articles on Steemit.

The Monthly Status Report

The steemSTEM crew has continued to promote quality STEM content posted on Steemit with upvotes, comments and resteems via the @steemstem account. Moreover, an extra bonus reward in Steem Power has been provided directly to all of the the creators of well written, informative and correctly referenced STEM articles chosen for promotion by this project.

Do not therefore hesitate to follow the @steemstem account for being kept up-to-date of good STEM Steemit articles! We try to guarantee at least 5 good posts a week!

We show below the list of posts that we have resteemed and granted a 10SP reward to their author during the last 28 days. Through those rewards we have directly redistributed a total of 240 SP to the community (Also note that no members of the steemSTEM team have received compensation from this project, helping the community grow is it's own reward).

The list also illustrates the diversity of topics that have attracted the team's attention. We strive with this to promote all types of authors unknown and well known, big and small. Additionally no topic is off limits for promotion so long as it is STEM related!

It has been a real pleasure to encourage following those authors who work so hard to create great STEM content on Steemit.
