AKILI STEMarts ACADEMY

The AKILI STEMarts Academy integrates Art and STEM education through digital storytelling and project based learning activities that enable children and young people to grow their interest in STEMarts subjects and careers while developing skills and competencies important for success in the global workforce such as problem-solving, communication, collaboration, creativity, innovation, autonomy, and critical thinking. 
Vision
We envision empowered youth and women with essential 21st century skills to solve real world challenges   
Mission
Our mission is to design science, technology, engineering, math and art experiences that activate and inspire our youth and the community  to explore and find solutions to real world challenges.

Activities
 a) Maths and Science Simulations & Games: Students learn and understand basic concepts in science and math through interactive simulations eg PHET , SIMPOP etc. as well as physical games

b) Digital Storytelling in Math and Science:
Students use STEM concepts as they design, craft, build, and share their stories e.g in cycle stories; Students tell the story of a scientific cycle by recreating the adventure of its “main character“ through video trailers, poems etc. Students also learn to solve problems through Games and puzzles  including  Math Terminology , Treasure Hunt, Quick Math and physical activities

c) Climate Solutions Lab:
Akili Climate Solutions Lab raises awareness and understanding of climate change, while providing a strong focus on empowering youths, women and schools to take an active role in finding solutions to environmental challenges in their communities. Students work in teams to develop and implement environmental solutions to an issue contributing to the climate crisis within their communities. 
d) STEM Revision: Students are assisted to improve their test scores in science and Math through individual and group tuition during school breaks and weekends.
