The Step Up STEM Program is an opportunity for students like Shiroth to explore topics they may only get a glimpse of in school. He shared with us right from day 1 his passion for sports, and we took it upon ourselves to show him that this love for sports can easily be connected back to STEM Learning. We zoned in on Basketball and helped him construct a research question, as well as make math and science connections that showed him the relevance of these topics. Shiroth learned effective research strategies so that he could grow as a learner and develop skills that would be transferable once September rolled around.
Shiroth was very excited to continue building his communication skills as he actively participated in all our games and activities to keep the day fun and engaging. What he didn’t realize was that he was learning how to present effectively, how to share his ideas, how to communicate with different people and how to adapt his communication style based on the audience.
By the end of the program, Shiroth was able to engineer a product that was the result of all his research, experimentation, collaboration with teachers and peers, as well as a combination of the science, math and technology skills he had developed.
This is just one story of success from our Step Up Summer Camp as we focus on engaging our learners every step of the way to develop their communication, problem solving creative and critical thinking skills. Our goal is to ensure that our Summer STEM Camp is an opportunity for students to grow socially and well as academically as they develop relevant STEM skills.
