We have a new opportunity through MIT Full STEAM Ahead<https://fullsteam.mit.edu/> for college and university students. We are again looking for folks to participate as paid interns this summer working with educators to design and develop their own FSA-like program. (Details on this educator program can be found here: https://fullsteam.mit.edu/fsaeip2022/.) There is also the opportunity to continue into the fall and work with teachers as they implement FSA in their schools, classrooms, or programs with middle or high school students. Pay is $17/hour (through either student payroll or MITemps).
The job description can also be found at https://fullsteam.mit.edu/mentors, and those interested should email Kirky DeLong directly at kirky at mit.edu<mailto:kirky at mit.edu>.
 Could you please share the opportunity below with your department or program's students? This opportunity is also open to recent grads and students outside of MIT if you'd like to share with other networks as well! We would really appreciate it. Thank you again for your time, and we hope you're all well as the summer is beginning!

-Kirky and Joe

Full STEAM Ahead: Intern/Mentor

Full STEAM Ahead (FSA)<https://fullsteam.mit.edu/> is a community outreach initiative to provide research-based hands-on learning opportunities for K-12 students. The initiative was launched in spring 2020 to support parents, teachers and students during the early days of COVID-19 by providing access to high-quality educational materials. Our vision is to create a global community of learners (children, teachers, and parents) who can share ideas, ask and answer questions, and engage in STEAM in meaningful ways even as they’re forced to stay home.

We are looking for Mentors to participate in our Full STEAM Ahead Educator Immersion Program<https://fullsteam.mit.edu/fsaeip2022/>. The position will take place from July 2022 through August 2022 with the possibility of continuing through the fall semester and working with the educators as they implement their new programs.

This July, FSA is offering a two-week hybrid summer program for educators in Massachusetts that will be focused on developing hands-on learning and projects. The hybrid educator program will run from July 11-15 (remote) and July 18-22 (at MIT). Mentors will help prepare for and participate in the educator program and continue with module development through August.

Pre-requisites:
•        Passion for K-12 education and mentoring students.
•        Interest in program/curriculum development.
•        Have 30 hours a week to commit to this project over the summer and potentially 10 hours a week if interested in continuing into the fall semester.
•        Be willing to run module activities and respond to questions from program participants.
•        Keep a weekly reflection journal that captures your thoughts and reflections about what is working, what is not, and how we might improve the program.

The job description can also be found at https://fullsteam.mit.edu/mentors, and those interested should email Kirky DeLong directly at kirky at mit.edu<mailto:kirky at mit.edu>.
