STEMAZing STEMinars
STEMinar: Not your typical webinar! Just like our in-person workshops, we strive to make our STEMinars as hands-on and minds-on as we can. And, as always, we will highlight ideas and lessons which are both equitable and accessible regardless of technology available (online and offline options) and regardless of socioeconomics (#STEMontheCheap lessons using readily available and/or inexpensive materials for rich learning experiences).
In-Person Workshops (returning as soon as we can safely gather): These hands-on, minds-on workshops put educators into the seats and minds of their students. Workshops range from a few hours to multi-day events and include the equipment and supplies teachers need to implement these activities in their own classrooms.
