We would love to invite ALL educators – that’s K-12 educators in public, private, coed, and single sex schools, out of school educators, and parents, to access and use THREE sets of resources easily accessible on our website and the talkSTEM YouTube channel – all completely free.
1. Watch our
Girls and Women in STEAM Video collection. We have almost
100 videos in this collection – many submitted by our growing community of school-aged girls who explore their playgrounds, campuses, and neighborhoods through the lens of STEM. Also included are videos of women in tech and young, undergraduates who are women sharing their personalized STEM lens as they look at their surroundings! You can go on
virtual STEM walks with high school students from Marymount School in Manhattan, our fabulous undergrad engineering intern at Duke University, and more! We’d love for you to create your own walkSTEM tour on your own campus, park or neighborhood too. More information about
Create Your Own walkSTEM is available.
Some of these great videos are panel discussions between women in tech careers such as the CIO of American Airlines,
If/Then Ambassadors, and high school STEAM advocates from
Girls Do STEAM. Thanks to our partner, the Dallas Black Dance Theater, you can view the
Physics of Dance workshop and create your own dance moves, keeping the physics connections in mind! You can even take a walk with a biomechanics specialist and gain insight into the kinds of angles your body makes as you move, try out fun activities involving designing paper boats and bouncing basketballs.
We hope this video collection will inspire girls everywhere (and their families, teachers, and other educators) to see the STEAM in their lived experiences, participate in STEAM activities in school, out of school, and absolutely anywhere, and develop their
STEAM mindsets continuously as they appreciate the
STEAM moments that make up so much of each day. By the way, this is one of a number of curated video collections that you can use.
