Explora’s Teen STEM Café is a teen-led project—led by Explora’s youth interns—that engages Albuquerque-area scientists and engineers with teens during informal science presentations at venues teens enjoy. Based upon the TSCN model, Explora’s cafés include three components—presentation, conversation, and hands-on engagement. Each café connects scientists and engineers with ~75 teens to explore science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts and engage in stimulating dialogue together.
