The Berkeley Lab Director’s Apprenticeship Program: Interdisciplinary Pathways to Machine Learning and Data Science (BLDAP:IPMLDS) is a project-based high school STEM (Science Technology Engineering Mathematics) program designed to help participants develop 21st century skills, learn about Berkeley Lab’s research activities, receive college and career guidance, and develop a STEM network in a real-life work environment. The program seeks to remove barriers, such as a lack of access to professional networks and work-based opportunities, by providing strong connections to the scientific community at Berkeley Lab.
We are seeking TAs for our intro to electronics workshops. TAs will work with small groups of students, answering their questions and providing troubleshooting tips as they assemble simple circuits using a circuit design trainer and Arduino.
Various dates are available from June 18th to July 9th. The program will be on site, and we ask volunteers to also join us in-person.
All volunteers participating in K-12 programs must complete an online working with minors course (~90 minutes), sign and submit a CANRA form, and pass a background check.
For any questions please contact K-12 Lead Education Facilitator Corbin Shatto (cshatto@lbl.gov)
