This workshop-based course aims to give UA students the opportunity to learn about issues of diversity (e.g., gender, race, class) in STEM fields and give them the opportunity to directly engage in STEM outreaching and programming efforts in the Tucson area. Students will receive hands-on training in STEM lesson planning, inter-active workshop design, and program evaluation provided by the STEMAZing Program of the Pima County Superintendent's Office and other community organizations. Students will be then be placed with a community organization or school program to assist in designing and implementing STEM programming. Students are expected to work with their organization for an average of 6-10 hours per week, in addition to attending weekly class meetings.
