Last chance to register!

Get Energized!  
Powering the Future with Green STEM Education
Wednesday, May 15
1pm - 4pm
Benjamin Franklin Institute of Technology

Have an innovative, fun, hands-on "green" STEM activity to share with K-12 educators and after school program providers? Want to turn others onto green careers? Apply to be an exhibitor at the Green STEM Education event at Get Energized! Powering the Future with Green STEM Education!

Green STEM Activity Demonstration: Presenters will be set up in a large open room with 10-15 activity demonstrations taking place simultaneously. Event participants will circulate, observing brief demonstrations of Green STEM activities and gathering information on programs and services from presenters. Demonstration activities should be hands-on, interactive and illustrate a green STEM concept in action. Activities should be between 10 and 30 minutes in length and repeated at least once during the hour long session.

Green STEM Career Speakers: Professionals from green careers may set up an exhibit that provides insight on what jobs in their field are like and on what credentials are required of individuals who are interested in pursuing a career in a particular field.

Space is limited -- we will try to accommodate as many exhibits as possible, but likely won't be able to offer exhibitor space to all applicants. There will also be a general Green STEM Education Resources area for displaying and sharing information on programs, events, and professional development.

Please contact Emily Shaer, Boston Youth Environmental Network Education Program Coordinator at Boston After School & Beyond, at eshaer@bostonbeyond.org or 617-345-5322, ext. 170, with questions or for more information.
