Outreach

NEFSTEM impacts the local, regional and surrounding areas by providing resources not just for teachers, UNF faculty, students and staff, and also students and families in the community. We are passionate about sharing our knowledge of STEM education with Northeast Florida in a multitude of ways. From field trips, to summer camps, after school programs and professional development and training, we invite you to participate in any of our outreach initiatives.

STEM Take Home Kits

The Department of Teaching, Learning, and Curriculum at COEHS, has developed a unique engagement opportunity to familiarize students and parents with concepts and skills used in STEM. The month-long program delivers toolkits to the participant schools for parents to engage in open-ended activities at home with their early childhood-aged children.
