STEAM Summer Science Fair - Mentor Sign Up
Hi everyone and welcome! Read below for a short introduction of what our program is, as well as what the time commitment would be.

STEAMPowered is an educational project that aims to provide free enrichment programs focused on hands-on learning in the areas of science, art, math and technology. Our Summer Science Fair specifically targets students grades 2-5 and provides students with a guided experience designing, implementing and presenting their own experiment and science fair-style project over the course of a 3-week program.

We're currently recruiting mentors for this program who would be able to contribute 5-6 hours a week for the weeks of August 3rd, 10th and 17th. Mentors will be responsible for guiding summer students through a simple science fair project (i.e. Which liquid will most quickly dissolve a Jolly Rancher?) by helping students brainstorm a project idea, develop materials and a protocol, collect data and present their findings. Mentors should have some basic experience with experimental design, but do not need to have extensive research or lab experience. We welcome applicants of all majors and backgrounds, so if you're at all interested in working with kids on a simple but fun science project, please sign up! We look forward to meeting and working with everyone :)

We'll only ever bother you by phone if we can't reach you by email/if it's something urgent. We don't anticipate having to call you/text you otherwise :)
Our summer science fair is a 3-week program that will begin August 3 and end August 22. The schedule is attached below. Please reference it (and the small text) and indicate whether you'd be able to make the time commitment to being a mentor. If you are unable to attend all sessions, please indicate which you will be absent for.
 As a general key, anything highlighted in orange indicates a synchronous session that you must be present for, while anything highlighted in blue indicates a checkpoint day where you'll be expected to schedule a meeting with your mentee students at your discretion. We are flexible if you are unable to attend some of the sessions, but please make sure that you can at least attend the majority of what you are expected to attend.
Program Schedule
Please (very briefly) describe any experience you have working with elementary school-age children in the past.
Having had prior experience is not mandatory to becoming a mentor, this question is just for us to see where everyone is in terms of experience teaching/mentoring young children!
Have you had experience with experimental design (i.e. taken a lab course, done research, etc.)?
