Accredited by the Nevada Department of Education and Stem.org, Code Central’s “Level Up” curriculum is a project-based learning platform where students learn in a fun and engaging environment.

How can we make sure that our ‘hands-on’ science experiences for youth are also ‘minds on?’ In this module, participants learn how to support youth as they engage in science practices to learn science ideas, including planning and conducting investigations around testable questions. They’ll talk about the similarities and differences between questioning in science versus questioning in engineering contexts.

Completion of the Asking Purposeful Questions module is a prerequisite for this module.

There is a growing need for male allies to advocate for greater gender equity in the STEM fields. Male allies advocate for and work to create more inclusive environments or cultures that will ultimately benefit everyone.

This webinar recording features strategies and resources (including the Male Allies Toolkit from NCWIT) that male parents, educators, and professionals can use to become effective allies to girls and women pursuing STEM.
