Welcome back to the monthly newsletter of STEM from Scratch! It has been some time since our last connection. In case you haven’t heard, STEM from Scratch is a non-profit organization that has recently been revitalized. The new leadership has been taken over by high school students in Ontario who are enthusiastic about STEM and intend to reach out to others with monthly newsletters covering STEM-related subjects and fascinating scientific and mathematical themes.
**What can you anticipate from STEM from Scratch?**
STEM is a fast-evolving and dynamic domain, and our team’s primary objective is to enhance entry and involvement for everyone through this organization. Our strategy is to heighten awareness of opportunities, workshops, and activities that examine various aspects of STEM for students. In doing so, we aim to assist students in discovering practical experiences in their chosen fields and nurture their enthusiasm for science and technology through engaging activities. We also intend to supply resources for the multiple sectors of STEM to broaden our readers’ understanding while helping them pinpoint which specific STEM themes resonate with them the most.
**So, what will this concretely entail?**
Excellent question! We have plenty planned for you. One initiative we aim to launch will be organizing events, such as coding and/or math workshops primarily aimed at younger students in elementary school and within our team’s local vicinity. Hackathons for computer science, math competitions, and interactive workshops focusing on subjects like health sciences are remarkable opportunities we are currently pursuing. We will also ensure that these events are not limited to our team’s present location but accessible wherever our readers are situated! We believe these experiences will serve as a fantastic way to engage with STEM and follow your interests.
