Data Jam engages students in the process of exploring, analyzing, and summarizing long-term data about nearby ecosystems that are the subject of extensive long-term study by LTER.
The goal for the STEM Career Connections project is to develop an innovative career readiness model for both in and out of school settings that will profoundly increase the knowledge of, and interest in, STEM and computing careers for middle school youth in a rural mountain community who are often underserved in STEM fields.
This Synthesis project uses meta-analysis and qualitative synthesis to examine the effects of integrating innovative technologies into K-12 STEM education on students’ STEM career-related outcomes, and if and in what ways intervention characteristics and educational settings moderate these effects.
A project designed to identify strategies to recruit, train, and retain Latinas into post-graduate education, STEM majors, and STEM careers.
The New Hampshire Academy of Science ITEST grant began Sept. 1, 2022 and will enable wrap-around programming to provide underrepresented students in underserved rural communities with scientific research experiences along with mentorship and college prep throughout high school, starting at each grade level. We are currently developing recruitment strategies for our first two cohorts.
Project Overview: The TRAILS 2.0 SEI will expand, scale, and innovate a tested model of integrative STEM instruction and teacher professional development to enhance rural students’ STEM learning while generating interest in STEM careers. To reach underserved and underrepresented rural populations, the TRAILS 2.0 team will work with up to 90 secondary STEM teachers to impact over 10,000 students and expand to schools in: Delmarva Peninsula (Delaware,
This one page summary presents the work over the past year as we have transitioned from home-based instructional settings back to in-person and hybrid-settings in the context of engaging our partner youth in learnign about coding, transparent soil, and novel technologies.
This project takes a Civic Science approach to STEM, i.e., students engaging in science to promote the public good. Classes of students from minoritized backgrounds collaborate with community partners to identify, study, and act on environmental problems in their urban communities.
The WATERS project increases student interest in STEM careers while building environmental awareness about watersheds.
The project engages high school students in exploring science-based climate scenarios and co-creating an interactive digital narrative. Project research investigates outcomes related to the project goal to improve STEM career aspirations among Latinx teens.
