Recommendations

How to Start Your Own Community Outreach Program 1.Partner with a school2.Get to know at least one science or math teacher3.Understand the teacher’s syllabus4.Together try to figure out how to help that teacher

1. Company tours2. Judge their science fairs3. Create hands on presentations that demonstrate what’s on

the syllabus 1. Presentations should be entertaining2. Lots of student involvement3. Presentations fill the entire class period


Transition from Community Outreach to a Formalized State Wide STEM Program:

•Align hands-on presentations with classroom lessons• Administrators, Industry and Teachers (AIT) commit to work

together• AIT committee develop multiple hands on technology

presentations• Make them FUN rather than rigorous• Make them cost effective• If necessary….. industry teach the presentations to teachers

•Standardize grade specific presentations for ALL grades

•Implement competitive technical after school programs• First Robotics• Lego League• Mechatronics• Others….
