During this project, we researched and interviewed organizations to create environmental science-STEM curricula for the Girls Inc. Camp Kinneywood summer camp. The team conducted focus group and pilot studies to test the curricula and provided a binder containing all activities and information related to the curriculum. The curriculum is flexible while allowing instructors and students to lead the investigations to where they are most interested. It’s recommended that surveys are held before and after the program to assess if any aspects of the curriculum need to be modified. It’s also suggested that another team evaluates the curriculum in the future as Massachusetts guidelines are updated and changed. New education research is also actively being conducted, so a group can assess the program with new findings which would benefit the students.
