STEM DIGITAL will enable 90 high school and middle school STEM teachers and their students to conduct environmental research aided by the analysis of images from digital cameras, scanners, and the Internet.
In this project, we will design, develop, and test ICT-SPACE (ICT-STEM Professions and Careers Exploration), a game-based career exploration environment for 7th and 8th grade students.
Through residential research experiences for high school students, and comprehensive workshops for science teachers, approximately 2000 students will generate and submit genetic data to the International Barcode of Life Initiative.
Seventy five high school teachers learn to use the Alice programming tool to enhance STEM, English, Spanish, etc. instruction, and, along with 45 guidance counselors and 225 high school students, learn about appealing aspects of IT.
