Are you a teacher or librarian?
If you are a K-12 public or charter school educator or librarian based in the United States, we have an opportunity for you (or someone you might know)!
This summer, we are excited to be once again teaching a virtual course, “Start with Art: STEAM Learning with Chibitronics Paper Circuits,” that will introduce educators to paper circuits, STEAM and how to integrate these activities across subject areas. We will also be giving a sneak peek of our new paper circuits software, which allows you to design circuit templates and test them using our real-time simulator.
Participating educators will receive full scholarships for hands-on virtual professional development, a certificate for 40 professional development hours, and a FREE bundle of Chibitronics supplies to learn with and take back to the classroom. Our program is generously funded by Infosys Foundation USA, as part of Pathfinders Summer Institute 2024! No experience with electronics is necessary—all backgrounds and skill levels are welcome.
Please note: Registration is only open to US-based K-12 public and charter school educators and librarians.

Testimony from a past participant:
If I had three words to describe the experience, I would say it was inspiring, supportive, and invigorating … collaborating with like-minded, passionate educators, exploring the world of paper circuits with Chibitronics. I definitely think what I learned will help me reach my goal of increasing more female students in my [STEM] classes.
