Description

As the agency reported it.

The planetarium will create stem classes in up to 18 different county libraries, with up to four library activity sessions each week. With each activity session, the project will engage middle school and high school aged participants in hands-on science, technology, and engineering activities that explore complex concepts and principles through simulations of robotic missions. Each visit will engage learners in stem-focused activities that emphasize group work such as building robots, collecting and analyzing data, and solving problems. Over the span of three years, the project will reach over 7,700 teens. The utah education policy center will use observation, program records, and a brief online survey to measure the program's impact on stem interest and improvement in confidence, attitudes, and behavioral intentions around stem.
