Benefits of STEM-Based
Learning Opportunities
STEM learning sharpens observation and analysis skillsfor young people
What happens outside of school is as important as what happens in school in developing a child’s interest in STEM
Afterschool programs can complement the school day by providing:
• room for experimentation,
• time to develop peer and mentor relationships, and
• opportunities to gain knowledge and skills
Unique student benefits through afterschool STEM
• Extra exposure
• Change of scene
• A chance to follow their spark
• Opportunity for all
