STEM Career Connections Site Needs YOUR Help! Feedback on videos, guide, and curriculum needed!

Do you have 60 minutes to devote to a great educational cause?

Your assistance is needed in the evaluation of project developed by Education Development Center, Inc (EDC). The Girls Communicating Career Connections project at EDC recently produced a series of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) career videos - all produced by and for middle school aged girls! In addition, we developed a companion website of related career information and an Educators Guide designed to help educators use the GC3 materials in context (in the classroom, in an afterschool program or at home). We are looking for middle school educators AND middle school aged students (preferably female in grades 6-8) to review the website and the youth-produced videos and give us their feedback.

All educator survey respondents will be entered to win one of TEN $50 Amazon.com gift cards! Each of the winning educators will also receive a $25 gift card to raffle off to their students or use however else they wish.

The site is ready for reviewing now at http://gc3.edc.org. The review of the website should take no more than 30 minutes; the survey would also take approximately 30 minutes and the links to the survey are available both at the site and via the links below.

NOTE: If you take the survey, you must also have your students take the survey in order to be eligible for the gift cards.
