Curriculum Design:

​

•  In Spring of 2024, the Curriculum Design Team created worksheets for 3-5 graders on computer science, and 6-8 graders on introduction to high school science.

• Since this summer, the team has been making worksheets on climate change and sustainability, experimental science, and Introduction to Physics for elementary school students. For middle school students, they design worksheets on Computer Science, Rocketry and Aerodynamics, and Artificial Intelligence. They also started a catch-up initiative, with more information coming up.

​​

Workshop Facilitators:

​

• The Workshop Facilitator Team hosted Intro to Physics and Intro to High School Science courses during their Fall/Winter cycle. They were able to successfully host over 10 workshops, each with their own unique experiments. 

• The Workshop Facilitator Team is currently hosting a 31 Day Science Fair where students will be making a science fair project with the topic of space! Students will be presenting their projects in an online symposium open to all STEMpathize interns, directors, and friends/families of students!​

​

Content Creation:

​

•  Content Creation worked on an introduction video for the core team and is their first completed project! Currently, they are working on uploading workshop recordings onto our YouTube Channel. They are also planning to make teasers for Fall/Winter workshops and post experiments & workshops highlights!

​

Stem Kit: 

​

• The STEM kit team was founded last summer, and they have distributed 200 STEM Kits on human anatomy and physiology in CA, NJ, and NY. They are currently working on advancing the program to launch an even-better Cycle #2 through mini-projects: funding, kit collectibles, and a special-edition kit.

Outreach:

​

• During the summer of 2024, the Outreach Team worked on individual portfolio projects meant to encapsulate their outreach experience (ex. educational courses, hosting competitions)! The team has also added online brochures to workshop emails that introduce contacts to STEMpathize as an organization; sent sponsorship packages to prospective sponsors/collaborators, which detail services that STEMpathize offers to supporters; and a resource hub for those who want to explore the various different fields of STEM. As of current, Outreach is contacting schools in preparation for STEMpathize’s Fall Workshops!

​

• Please fill out this form if you are interested in leaving your email to receive future opportunities in STEMpathize sent by the Outreach team.

​

Social Media:

​

• In the past, the Social Media Team worked on various projects to promote interactions with STEM, which include at-home experiments, Invention Perfection, and Scientist Spotlight! This fall, The Social Medi Team has been working on career exploration posts, high school opportunities posts, a “Month of” post, and interviews of STEMpathize volunteers!

​

Website: 

• ​During the beginning of 2024, the Website Design Team worked on making the website look fresher by changing colors, font styles, and more. As the year went on, the team has successfully made a Google Calendar for students/parents to keep track of events, ramped up the social media page to increase engagement, featured the Blog Team’s newest article on the Home Page weekly, and created the All Team Updates page which should be published and done by the time you are reading this!

​

Blog:​

​

• ​The Blog Writing Team posts blog articles every Friday in partnership with the Website Team to be featured on the website. They are currently working on our next cycle of articles, which includes a circuit article promoting the Stem Kit Team’s upcoming project, as well as interview Articles with STEMpathize directors highlighting their teams and achievements. In addition to its regular STEM blog articles, the team has introduced creative columns to diversify content, although their primary focus has remained on producing consistent STEM articles.
