Smithsonian Science How is back! Following a successful partnership with six Smithsonian Affiliates earlier this year, the popular webcast has returned with new dates and new topics. These free, interactive, TV-style webcast programs will introduce middle school students to core science concepts through the lens of Smithsonian research and experts, providing students with positive STEM role models and a connection to science in their lives. Explore the topics in the schedule by presenting a webcast at your location, using the classroom activities, and connecting the discussion to your own collections.
A schedule of the programs and list of the topics that will be presented is available here.
If you are a staff member at a Smithsonian Affiliate who would like to offer the program, please email us at affiliations@si.edu to sign up and receive resources, including strategies to share this program on social media. Affiliate partners will be asked for information about their audiences, numbers of attendees and which webcasts will be offered.
