BRINGING NORTH CAROLINA

Founded in 2010 as the nation’s first statewide science festival, the North Carolina Science Festival is a two-week series of events that showcase science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). These events highlight the educational, cultural and economic impact of the STEM disciplines on North Carolina. Through hands-on activities, science talks, lab tours, nature experiences, exhibits and performances, the Festival engages audiences while inspiring a greater appreciation of science. Morehead Planetarium and Science Center, a constituent unit of The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, founded the Festival in 2010 and produces the Festival annually.

TOGETHER AROUND STEM

The North Carolina Science Festival is bringing citizens together. The Festival’s kickoff event, the Statewide Star Party, attracted science lovers to 44 sites including this scene at Jordan Lake in Chatham County.

The Festival is also bringing state and community leaders together to engage in meaningful discussions about STEM in North Carolina. These conversations are leading to the formation of action plans for lifting the state’s performance in science education and in the STEM-based economy.

STEM PRIDE DAY

THE FESTIVAL SHOWCASED STEM AT THE NORTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY FOR LEGISLATORS AND THE PUBLIC North Carolina’s legislators celebrated the impact of STEM throughout the state with the first-ever N.C. Science Festival Day at the North Carolina General Assembly on Tuesday, April 16, 2013. Senators, representatives, legislative staff members and visiting students watched science demonstrations and experimented with handson science activities. They saw examples of high-tech lighting solutions and innovative technologies in agriculture, came face-to-face with snakes and robots, tested findings from nutrition research and learned about new initiatives in nanotechnology and biotechnology that are impacting North Carolina’s economy.

Festival representatives talked with their elected officials about the ways that Festival activities strengthen STEM education and spotlight STEM careers throughout the state, with Festival activities carving a 500-mile-wide “impact zone” across North Carolina. N.C. Science Festival Day participants included state outreach programs that host Festival expos and events, Festival supporters, Festival board members and other leaders in science.

SCIENCE SUMMIT

N.C. STATE UNIVERSITY’S INSTITUTE FOR EMERGING ISSUES AND THE FESTIVAL UNITED STATE LEADERS TO DISCUSS STEM PROFICIENCY AND TAKE ACTION.

Dozens of science and technology experts shared ideas for economic growth on Thursday, April 11, 2013 as part of the N.C. Science Summit, a signature event of the 2013 N.C. Science Festival presented by the Institute for Emerging Issues at North Carolina State University.

Guest speakers included N.C. Lt. Gov. Dan Forest and N.C. Commerce Department Secretary Sharon Decker, in addition to leaders in business, industry and education. These leaders discussed the challenges facing North Carolina’s economy and identified some of the solutions that science and technology THE STEM SCORECARD: offer to meet those challenges. “STRATEGIES THAT ENGAGE MINDS” Is North Carolina preparing its students and workers for the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) requirements of 21st-century jobs?

The participants explored five collaborative strategies to bolster science and technology in N.C.:

The STEM Scorecard, launched by the N.C. Science, Mathematics and Technology Education Center and the STEM Learning Network, answers that question by assessing our state’s performance in preparing students and workers for STEM careers.

The STEM Scorecard was introduced during the 2013 N.C. Science Summit. You can download an overview of the STEM Scorecard here: http://ncsmt.org/pdf/NC_STEM_Scorecard_Overview.pdf

Other topics included analyzing the innovation pipeline, using public investment as a catalyst for private opportunity and positioning N.C. as a global leader in science and technology.

The N.C. Science Festival staff will facilitate regional planning meetings this fall to advance the work of the Summit. You can listen to an archived livestream of N.C. Science Summit presentations here: http://bit.ly/sciencesummit

STATEWIDE STAR PARTY 2013 SAW THE DEBUT OF A NEW INITIATIVE TO ENGAGE NORTH CAROLINIANS IN THE FESTIVAL. A Statewide Star Party launched the start of the North Carolina Science Festival on April 5. Thousands of North Carolinians of all ages gathered at 44 host sites across the state to gaze into the night sky, learn how to identify celestial objects and enhance their knowledge of our solar system, galaxy and universe.

In Wilmington, Cape Fear Museum, Airlie Gardens and other community partners hosted a Star Party at Airlie Gardens. Organizers projected a maximum of 200 attendees, but were thrilled to welcome nearly 1,000 people to their event! The Statewide Star Party was made possible thanks to generous support from the North Carolina Space Grant.

SCIENCE EXPOS

THE HIGHER ED COMMUNITY AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS HAVE EMBRACED THE EXPO CONCEPT TO CONNECT THE PUBLIC TO SCIENCE RESEARCH. Across North Carolina, universities and other community organizations hosted more than a dozen regional science expos that offered activities for all ages: guest speakers, entertainment, science experiments, behind-thescenes lab tours, science-themed arts and crafts, demonstrations, takehome science projects and other ways to experience all kinds of science disciplines, from astronomy to zoology. At UNC Wilmington, families directed underwater ROVers (robot-operated vehicles) on missions. At East Carolina University, children learned about biodiversity, with opportunities to study snakes and fish and insects at close range. At UNC Asheville, adults explored a retrofitted schoolbus that now serves as a greenhouse. And that was just the beginning! Several of the expos adopted an Earth Day theme, and most included opportunities for “citizen scientists” to conduct simple research observations alongside leading scientists.

These free events required tremendous collaboration and hard work among the community groups that organized and staffed each expo. The reward? Nonstop excitement as everyone experienced a full day of science discovery!
