We encourage you to listen to this recent "Higher Ed Rewired" podcast episode, with a great example of community engagement in STEM.
CSU East Bay students build off-grid solar power and lighting systems designed to alleviate energy poverty—a lack of access to modern energy services. These projects are completed alongside K-12 students, as peer-led service-learning projects. This design creates opportunities for college students to use their learning to do problem solving and excites K-12 students in STEM fields.
