Adults: Our monthly STEM series will focus on a specific STEM badge or Journey and will provide hands-on examples for the activities, suggestions for modifications you can make to fit the interests of your Girl Scouts and take-home resources to support volunteers in facilitating the awards with their troop or service unit. Each session will also focus on either Daisies, Brownies and Juniors or Cadettes, Seniors and Ambassadors. Our September and October sessions will focus on the Think Like a Programmer Journey. While the focus will be on volunteer enrichment, we will have activities available for youth to try while the adults are learning. 

September/October Focus: Think Like a Programmer Solve big problems step by step. The focus of this Girl Scout Journey is activities to learn how computer programmers think through problems. Activities to follow and create algorithms, break big problems down into smaller ones, and persist when faced with challenges.

Program facilitated by: GSHCC staff

Program Fee: $0

Event Disclaimer: This is session for adult volunteers, while we will have informal activities for youth that need to attend with their caregiver, the focus is on adult learning.
