A worldwide hands-on, primary and secondary school-based science and education program. GLOBE's vision promotes and supports students, teachers and scientists to collaborate on inquiry-based investigations of the environment and the Earth system working in close partnership with NASA and NSF Earth System Science Projects (ESSPs) in study and research about the dynamics of Earth's environment.

"Crickets are small programmable devices that can make things spin, light up, and play music. You can plug lights, motors, and sensors into a Cricket, then write computer programs to tell them how to react and behave. With Crickets, you can create musical sculptures, interactive jewelry, dancing creatures, and other artistic inventions -- and learn important math, science, and engineering ideas in the process. Crickets are based on more than a decade of NSF-funded educational research. Lifelong Kindergarten researchers collaborated with the LEGO company to create the first "programmable bricks," squeezing computational power into LEGO bricks. This research led to the LEGO MindStorms robotics kits, now used by millions of people around the world. While LEGO MindStorms is designed especially for making robots, Crickets are designed especially for making artistic creations. Crickets were refined in collaboration with the Playful Invention and Exploration (PIE) museum network, and are now sold as a product through the Playful Invention Company (PICO)."

Wonderful collection of short profiles of women working in STEM or CTE fields. Share with your students because female role models inspire girls to see their futures differently.

These look like great resources, but I cannot see them because of a log-in page that I am redirected to via this link

I experienced the same problem. I am really interested in looking at the worksheets though. Is there some way others can have access to them? Or can you give us the home/main page?

nice videos on a variety of STEM topics curated by NSF

Excellent resource. Short videos on a wide array of science topics. Upper school audiences mostly.

Congrats to the team doing this award winning work promoting Gender Equitable Teaching Strategies for STEM and CTE! Videos worth sharing to inspire many students.
