  • DDS “Kids STEM Guide”
    • Data Discovery Science recently published a guide for young learners interested in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. The “Kids STEM Guide” is a carefully crafted database of websites, camps, and contests that increase student exposure to STEM fields in fun, creative, and interactive ways. At the link above there are links to great resources broken down by age group (K-5 & 6-12), as well as by subject (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math). Finally,  a section is dedicated to sites with a specific focus on Girls who continue to be underrepresented in STEM careers. You can find the guide using the above link.
