GO GREEN!!! SUMMER ACADEMY

The lack of STEM initiatives for young women in the Arkansas River Valley and the need to train teachers to present STEM concepts in a more engaging manner will be addressed at the 2014 Go GREEN! Summer Academy for 8th grade female students, centered around renewable energy. Participants will be exposed to science, with practical applications, in their local communities before entering high school and engage young women to think about STEM in a manner that they may not have considered before. Activities will include topics in biofuels, DNA analysis, solar energy and more. JUNE 23-27, 2014
