STOMP Fellow Comment

 

“In one of my classrooms at the Columbus Elementary School, most of the girls groups were really timid and lacked a lot of confidence when doing the LEGO and engineering activities. Since myself and another female engineering student were teaching the class, we worked hard all semester to show them that girls can do engineering and be great at it. By the end of the semester, they were really being creative and doing a lot of good engineering work, sometimes even better than the boys. Through the last class, all of the students had gotten really enthusiastic about LEGO engineering, and it was really great to see girls branching out and really getting excited about engineering.”

How to Join for Universities

 

Support for Universities

In 2004, STOMP at Tufts received renewed funding to not only continue its local efforts, but also to help other universities start their own STOMP programs.Tufts STOMP committed to helping 10 universities start and sustain STOMP outreach programs in their local communities over the next 4 years. STOMP at Tufts can provide small ($5,000) support awards for materials, travel, and/or consulting for the first year of the new program.

 

Support Award Details
