Outreach Events 2014

We, the 2014 University of Alabama Astrobotics Team, in collaboration with Shelton State Community College (SSCC), sought to increase interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines among a diverse group in our community through a series of outreach activities planned throughout the 2013-2014  academic year. These outreach events addressed K-12 students, their parents and teachers, as well as those attending both 2-year and 4-year institutions of higher education. Our outreach plan strived for both breadth and depth, including a wide range of activities to achieve breadth across many groups while also focusing many activities on one particular local community group to develop deeper, more meaningful relationships. Instead of just describing these events, however, let us take a look at some the people we have touched with our efforts.
