| Youth Engineering Solutions STEM Leader Institute 2.5 day professional learning July 17-19, 2025
This professional learning will introduce the Museum of Science’s Youth Engineering Solutions Curriculum for elementary and middle school. The curriculum promotes students to tackle real-world problems, scaffolded by an age-appropriate engineering design process. Challenges channel students’ creativity and engage them in engineering and science practices. As they engineer, students use science and computer science concepts and tools, thus deepening their understanding of these disciplines. This workshop goes beyond learning the curriculum. Participants will gain the skills and resources to lead professional learning workshops of their own. The workshop includes facilitation tips, strategies, and support to confidently share these units and engineering learning framework with other educators. Learn more about YES: yes.mos.org.
