CREATE for STEM hosts, sponsors and supports exciting events during the academic year; we are delighted to help promote other STEM education events at Michigan State University and in the larger STEM education research community. Please let us know if you are having an event that we can help advertise.
We have one more science seminar series event planned for April 16; Rebeckha Fussell from Cornell University will be visiting the PERL lab and spending some time in CREATE on April 17. The annual mini-conference is scheduled for Wednesday, May 14, 2025. We are excited to welcome our keynote speaker, Dr. Noah Feinstein, from the University of Madison-WI. The format this year will be different than years before - watch for more information coming soon!
