GSK Science in the Summer™ is a completely free, hands-on STEM enrichment program developed in collaboration with The Franklin Institute, aiming to inspire interest and confidence in science for youth, especially in under-resourced communities.
GSK Science in the Summer™ is a free science education program designed for elementary and middle school children, typically those entering grades 2-6. The program aims to increase youth's interest and confidence in doing science and pursuing STEM careers, especially for those in under-resourced communities. Through hands-on experiments and engaging activities, students step into the roles of various scientists and engineers. For example, in past years, themes have included being a Space Scientist, Health Scientist, Biologist, Physicist, Engineer, and Chemist. Activities encourage scientific practices such as making observations, testing hypotheses, investigating, and model-making. Students gain critical thinking skills and explore real-world problems, fostering a deeper understanding of scientific principles and potential career paths in STEM.
A typical day involves students engaging in hands-on experiments and activities related to the program's theme, taking on the role of a specific type of scientist or engineer to solve real-world problems.
This program is best for elementary and middle school children, particularly those entering grades 2-6, who are curious about science and enjoy hands-on learning experiences.
