ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Science Discovery offers a variety of opportunities for ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder faculty to share their STEM research with broad public audiences, while fulfilling NSF and other Federal grant Broader Impacts requirements. Faculty partners connect their scientific work to Science Discovery’s outreach efforts in a variety of ways.
Examples of Broader Impacts activities:Â
- Contributing content and expertise to Science Discovery classes, camps or outreach programs for K-12 students
- Mentoring high school student researchers
- Providing visiting K-12 students a window into your research while on campus or at a local field site
- Providing hands-on teacher training and follow-up support through school and teacher programs
- Involving graduate students and post-docs in outreach programs
- Contributing scientific expertise, resources and equipment
- Ensuring scientific accuracy of education materials
