In each episode, join bright, curious real girls in putting STEM to work. Then check out the website to play games, watch episodes, share projects, and connect with other SciGirls® in a totally safe social networking environment!
SciGirls® Trainings integrate inquiry-based STEM instruction with a commitment to gender equity. Educators attending SciGirls® Trainings will learn the latest research for exciting and engaging girls (and boys) in STEM; experience hands-on STEM activities; and gain access to free materials for hands-on, video-enhanced activities that put a creative twist on teaching STEM.
ACT 48 credits are available for this event!
