ONE DAY. ONE HUNDRED CLASSROOMS. IMAGINING THE FUTURE.
What are the unanswered questions in science? What are the unsolved problems facing our community? How can students envision themselves addressing the challenges of our future through STEM literacy and via local STEM careers?
Kick off your Atlanta Science Festival experience by Imagining the Future! On March 9, 2023, local STEM professionals will visit classrooms* in metro Atlanta to give students a sense for how science is done, who scientists are, and what questions remain unanswered. These virtual sessions – by researchers, technicians, engineers, entrepreneurs, and others whose career involves the application of STEM learning – will inspire students to imagine themselves shaping the future as the STEM-literate professionals of tomorrow.
* Visits may take place virtually or in-person, if permitted by the school and agreeable to the STEM professional.
