Scaling Out-of-School Time STEM Programming

May 1, 2020 | Public Programs

To gather information about national opportunities for out-of-school time science, technology, engineering, and math (OST STEM) learning, Education Northwest conducted a systematic review of OST STEM programs for the Overdeck Family Foundation. The goal of this work was to better understand what programs and program elements have been successful in scaling up to regional and national levels. We were also interested in the evidence that these programs meet their academic and social goals with students, particularly students underrepresented in STEM, and how evidence of effectiveness relates to program scale. Overdeck plans to disseminate these findings to provide insights for the OST STEM field, as well as use the findings to shape its own approach to grant-making.
