Have you ever wanted to ask a scientist a question, but don't know one personally? Do you wonder what being a scientist really means, or what kinds of people become scientists? Well here is your chance to get some answers! Here is a program featuring Stanford scientists from different fields, backgrounds, and places, who are here to answer all of your questions!
Stanford Science Penpals hosts Ask a Stanford Scientist, connecting 6th - 12th grade classrooms to Stanford scientists. Their goal is to expose kids to diverse scientific careers, answer science questions, and share their love of science!
Teachers, check out the website. From the bottom of any scientist’s page, students can ask them a question (it’s all on google forms), see the questions that have been asked and their answers, or sign up to hear when answers get posted (teachers will probably want that one). It usually takes scientists a few weeks (up to 6 weeks sometimes) to answer questions and get them published on the website.
FUN FACT: Can you find the scientist that graduated from DEMING HIGH SCHOOL? That's right, there's a scientist that came from right in our area! Here's a hint: She has a doctorate and her research specialty is brains!
Have your students ask questions before the break. Then, when they come back, soon they'll have some answers from their new science penpals!
