Promote math, science, STEM, and STEAM education to all children. talkSTEM’s mission, founded by Dr. Koshi Dhingra, is to make Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) learning engaging for all learners. talkSTEM’s approach centers on using place-based learning strategies so that students see the relevance of STEM in their local communities and environments. TalkSTEM takes educators and learners on "STEM walks" in different settings using videos. In addition, instructional guides can be downloaded so your students can make their own STEM walks! We foster student engagement by sharing free resources for all educators who shape learning in K-12 students—both in and out of school.

Professor Wysession, at Washington University in St. Louis will show how he uses the seismic waves from large earthquakes to make pictures of the Earth’s deep interior, like a medical X-ray or CT scan. He will talk about traveling to places like Minnesota and Madagascar to install seismometers to learn why some volcanoes erupt where they do and piece together the ancient history of the tectonic motions of the continents.
