Description:
How do you help youth recognize their connection to and role in STEM? How do you help youth learn about STEM careers? In this two-part module, you’ll experience several easy to implement strategies including a photo elicitation activity, learn about how youth form STEM identities, and then learn how to conduct related activities with youth. Back at your program, you will capture a video of your practice and then share during part two, the small group coaching session.

- Have taken an ACRES course before, completing at least the Asking Purposeful Questions module.
