Scientists in School<\/a> is a registered education charity that has been igniting scientific curiosity since 1989!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our classroom, community, and family workshops open the wonders of science, engineering, and technology to youth and children across Canada. We recognize that early, positive exposure to science is critical to instilling a life-long interest in STEM. To get kids excited about science, we have developed curriculum-aligned workshops that are fun and engaging. Workshops are designed to build critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills. Post-workshop extension activities are also an integral part of our program \u2013 giving teachers the tools to enrich the learning long after the workshop is done. Check out all of our workshops, here<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our programming also includes a STEM career video series, Spotlight with Scientists in School<\/a>, Interviews are fun and engaging and highlight career pathways with inspiring scientists from across the globe, from beluga whale snot collectors in Churchill, Manitoba to Arctic polar ambassadors in Svaldbard, Norway. Videos premiere on our YouTube channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our organization is made up energetic, dynamic presenters that are topic experts. We are thrilled to be working collaboratively with dHL and sharing our team\u2019s passion and expertise for STEM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
