STEM@GTRI brings the expertise from Georgia Tech’s science, technology, engineering and math research and faculty to Georgia’s K12 educators, students, and communities. Through our interactive outreach exhibits STEM@GTRI creates awareness of and excitement about education and career opportunities in STEM fields.
STEM@GTRI brings fun, educational and engaging STEM activities to K12 students at school or STEM events. Our library of portable science demonstrations, called STEM Road Kits, are staffed by Georgia Tech scientists and engineers who can bring the excitement and fun of science to Georgia schools, science festivals, and community events at no cost.
Most of the kits contain more than one activity or demonstration associated with a single STEM subject area. Many of the kits can be combined into a themed presentation, allowing the flexibility to engage a variety of audience sizes. Where relevant, road kits are aligned with Georgia science teaching standards.
Topics include electrostatics, vacuum chamber physics, acoustics, rotational physics, sun and solar system, microscopes, non-newtonian fluids, basic chemistry, fossils, light, and air pressure.
