Nobel Project’s End-of-Year Zoom Bash Recaps Learning, Honors Students
Febuary 1, 2021
Several participants who attended the End-of-Year event via Zoom. Left to right, top to bottom, these include Ava Meux, Richard Roberts, Ruby Mendenhall, Chorghade, Dotty Stumpf, Wanda Ward, King Li, Barbara Gillespie, a Nobel Scholar, and Matthew De Venecia. The STEM Illinois Nobel Project held a special, end-of-the-year Zoom event celebrating its participating students’ achievements on Saturday, November 19, 2021. Showing up for the celebration were many of the roughly 78 Nobel Scholars—middle through high school students (and some of their parents)—who, over the past year, participated in one, or many, of the project’s Saturday Zoom outreach sessions. Part of the Chancellor’s STEM Illinois public engagement initiative, the Nobel Project, begun in fall 2020, has sought to expose participants to Computer Science (CS), CS-related areas, Community Health, Medicine, and even some sociology.
Our vision for Illinois as a land-grant institution is to foster accessible, effective STEM teaching and learning—from preschool through graduate education—at local, state, and national levels, thereby preparing a highly able citizenry and diverse STEM workforce to tackle pressing global challenges.
