Science Club partnerships in the spotlight
Science in Society has been published in a new journal dedicated to high-quality STEM education. Connected Science Learning is a joint initiative of the National Science Teacher Association (NSTA) and the Association of Science-Technology Centers (ASTC). The journal profiles programs which bridge in-school and out-of-school settings, particularly focusing on effective mechanisms for collaboration. The award-winning Science Club program is featured in the inaugural issue, published March 2016.
Science in Society is a Northwestern University research center dedicated to science education and public engagement currently directed by Neurobiology Affiliated Faculty member Michael Kennedy. Through partnerships with Chicago-area schools and community groups, we train Northwestern researchers to share their expertise and creativity in a community-centered way. Our focus is to develop sustainable educational initiatives that deliver proven results for groups that need us most.
