STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) projects are hands-on activities that help people learn by doing. These projects often involve solving problems, building things, or experimenting to understand how something works. Examples include making a simple robot, coding a video game, building a bridge out of popsicle sticks, or testing how plants grow under different conditions. They are fun and creative ways to use science and math in real life and show how technology and engineering can solve everyday challenges.
These projects are great for learning new skills and working with others. They teach teamwork, problem-solving, and how to think critically about ideas. Whether in a classroom, at home, or in a club, STEM projects help kids and adults explore cool ideas and understand how the world works. Plus, they can spark interest in careers like engineering, programming, or science, making them both fun and useful for the future!
From time to time, I will do a project and document the process from end to end. You will find links and information here.
A fairly simple project. I put this together more to show the process of defining, designing and implementing from end to end.
