Between November 2021 and June 2022, we are showcasing 50+ STiS Ambassadors on our website, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. These students completed projects such as STiSA profiles, STEM professional interviews, and environmental projects/human health projects. Follow along with the STiSA showcase.
Through Systems Education Experiences (SEE), we have developed and disseminated nine curriculum modules and have five more in development. All modules work toward helping students internalize interdisciplinary STEM concepts and the skills of research and systems biology.
SEE is building systems medicine curriculum course to integrate science and technology to optimize current health and future wellness for individuals and communities.
We have created a “Systems Thinkers in STEM” video interview series featuring STEM professionals from a wide range of STEM and healthcare careers. These videos serve to provide students and educators with the opportunity to connect to real-world STEM careers and learn how systems thinking plays a role in all STEM career pathways.
The SEE internship program offers a cross-disciplinary research experience for high school students, through which they learn the power of the scientific approach. This past summer, we had our second, fully remote internship. Learn more about the 2021 high school interns and their virtual experience.
During the summer of 2020, 42 rising 12th-grade students used their quarantine time to learn how computational modeling can be used to solve complex problems. Students designed and completed projects related to computational modeling with the online guidance of scientists, programmers, and educators within or connected to Systems Education Experiences at ISB. YOU can freely access and interact with their projects and other computational modeling resources from our Gaining Insight through Systems Thinking and Computational Modeling website.
