Rutgers University is proud to announce the release of the 2022 4-H STEM Challenge – Explorers of the Deep.
This STEM focused kit was developed by a team of educators and oceanographers in the Department of Marine Sciences and the Department of 4-H Youth Development. The kit focuses on the mysteries and adventures of ocean exploration – with ocean robots!
Activities were designed to develop observational and critical thinking skills while exploring the interconnected nature between the ocean and humans, regardless of where they live. Kids learn foundational STEM skills while they wrestle with the same questions as today’s top oceanographers and scientists. Activities can be done all at once or individually, making the kit a great resource for classrooms, afterschool programs, clubs, families and more.
