The National Science Foundation (NSF) seeks to energize the STEM community around the importance of STEM education and is asking its partners, stakeholders, and anyone who has a passion in STEM to share a moment that sparked their curiosity about or interest in science, technology, engineering, or math.
Starting on November 26, stories can be shared on Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #MySTEMspark, via video or text. If you don’t have a personal account on these social media platforms, email your video or text with a picture to tellus@nsf.gov, and NSF will share it on their channels.
Don’t wait too long!
NSF concludes the #MySTEMspark campaign on December 7. For professionals in the informal STEM education field, you might also share the spark that inspired you to become a STEM educator, researcher, or evaluator. Tag colleagues and friends in your posts to encourage them to share their #MySTEMspark story.
