An internship that is not only "out of the box" but also "in the box." A box you say? Well, actually, it's a truck. A big, white one called STE(A)M Truck. It's a mobile makerspace, and we need interns!

What does STE(A)M truck do exactly?  STE(A)M = Science, Technology, Engineering, (Arts), and Mathematics. STE(A)M Truck is a mobile makerspace that offers an experience anchored by a rigorous, experiential learning-based curriculum. The support and collective expertise of the local community is what brings the STE(A)M Truck experience to life. Adult STE(A)M role models – maker-mentors, STE(A)M designers, and local artists, along with educators in local schools – work closely with young students in Atlanta to tackle real problems, design solutions, and build things. Students learn the design process and develop a sense of self-efficacy as they create their own solutions. Educators also learn and are inspired over the 20-day award winning program. They leave better-equipped to bring similar instructional concepts and methodologies into their classrooms once the truck pulls out of the parking lot.

Apply to be an intern!
