STEM2Go Digital Shorts are a collection of video studies from local and national locations taken by several STEM Instructors and experts in the field. We crave real-life applications and authentic learning experiences. There aren't enough field trip funds to cover all of the amazing places that can be at the center of study, so we strive to bring the field trip to the classroom with immersive video experiences and relevant inquiry.
