Every student deserves a chance to see themselves in science. The @IAmASTEM project is working on making that possible by bringing the stories of diverse, multifaceted, real world scientists to the classroom.

THE WAR FOR KINDNESS is a "kindle daily deal," which means you can get the e-book on any platform for just $2, for today only.
At prices like these, you can't afford NOT to learn more about empathy!

Ahh, these are SO GOOD!
We love seeing the incredible ways that teachers like @MsGormanEDU bring the #IAmAScientist program to life in their classrooms.
Check out these amazing budding scientists, we guarantee you'll be as inspired as we are! 🚀🦕🌍🧬🧠
Check out these amazingly creative posters made by our @SSSASsaints seventh grade scientists! This culminating assignment was inspired by the @IAmASTEM program posters - which feature the many diverse scientists we have researched & celebrated all year. 1/2

Today is a big day!!
A year ago, we launched @IAmASTEM. Since then, we donated 1500+ kits, bringing inclusive STEM storytelling to over 300,000 students!
Help us celebrate by tagging a scientist who inspires you. Maybe one day we'll get to tell their story, too! #IAmAScientist
Want to support our newly launched, open access program to break STE(A)M barriers and stereotypes across classrooms & communities?
Help us get poster kits into the hands of educators by "donating a kit" or spreading the word! #IAmAScientist

Four years ago, I left the lab and started organizing. For me it wasn’t about science. It was about what science could do to support just, sustainable, and informed policies.
We’ve got a lot of work ahead, but today #teamscience got a fighting chance.

OK this might be the coolest display of #IAmAScientist posters and stories we've seen yet!! 🤩

We asked kids to name as many scientists as they could. Their answers show just how limited our view of STEM leaders can be.
The #IAmAScientist project is working to change that.

Exciting idea: #IAmAScientist is “an initiative to share stories w/middle & high school students & help them connect w/scientists of diverse backgrounds &, ultimately, break down barriers that keep some students from considering STEM careers.” @theplenary seas.harvard.edu/news/2020/0…

We're so excited to see this amazing resource go live - and so proud to be featured as a "partner collection"!
#TeacherTwitter: check out this incredible *free* collection of digital videos and images to help your classrooms showcase #WomeninSTEM! 💫
The @ifthenshecan Collection is open!
It is the LARGEST free image library of #WOMENINSTEM. From Science Museums to Classroom Walls & more the #IFTHENCOLLECTION makes it possible for young women & girls to SEE themselves as the next #STEM pioneers. ifthencollection.org
