👏👏That’s a wrap on our Inspired by STEM camp!👏👏
Last week, 6th-9th grade campers discovered the world of STEM through a variety of hands-on learning activities across the Emporia State University campus including interactive visits to the LT Hive, Esports arena, Peterson Planetarium, Museums, Greenhouse, and more. Students explored a variety of topics ranging from space science and technology to parasites and prehistoric life.
With the help local math educators, ESU faculty, and students, campers solved math problems, explored space payload, used Sphero coded robots, created fossils, interacted with animal ambassadors from the David Traylor Zoo, and MUCH more! Inspired by STEM is a great opportunity for kids to explore STEM fields and have fun while doing it.
The School of Science and Mathematics has many ongoing educational outreach opportunities! You can stop by the Science Hall weekdays 8 am - 5 pm to tour our planetarium and museums, and be sure to keep your eyes peeled for future camps next summer!
The Inspired by STEM camp was a collaborative partnership that included ESU STEM Outreach within the School of Science & Mathematics and ESU Cybersecurity Research & Outreach Center (CyROC) within the School of Business and Technology.
