By making catalyst grants available to public libraries, we empower them to start their own science kit collections that are free and accessible to the public. <\/em><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<br \/>\nAnnouncing the 2022 Public Library Grant for Science Kits<br \/>\nContact:\u00a0 Dr. Douglas De Boer P.E.<br \/>\nDouglas.DeBoer@Dordt.edu<br \/>\n\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<br \/>\nThe Institute of Electrical and Electronics …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-704","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Announcing the 2022 call for grants - Science Kit for Public Libaries (SKPL)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/r4.ieee.org\/skpl\/2021\/11\/01\/announcing-the-2022-call-for-grants\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Announcing the 2022 call for grants - Science Kit for Public Libaries (SKPL)\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Announcing the 2022 Public Library Grant for Science Kits Contact:\u00a0 Dr. Douglas De Boer P.E.

But these trying times do not mean that progress has ceased for IEEE-Region 4, and this definitely applies to Science Kits for Public Libraries (SKPL), an outreach program in support of early engineering education that launched in 2017. SKPL offers competitive grants\u2014generally in the US$1,000-$2,000 range\u2014enabling public libraries to advance engineering awareness and education by creating hands-on circulating science kit collections. Forty five applications for 2021 grants were received, compared to 22 in 2020, and thanks to donor generosity, at least 15 grants will be awarded in 2021 as compared to 7 grants in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Libraries in rural towns, suburbs and large cities continue to report kids\u2019 enthusiasm for learning about such subjects as optics, magnetism and robotics through the hands-on science kits. Like paper-and-ink books, the science kits can be used on site or checked out of the library and taken home. The kits give school-age youngsters an opportunity for self-learning, and hands-on experiences with scientific principles and engineering challenges. Equally important, they\u2019re also a lot of fun! Basic science and technology education is surely vital to the future of our profession and a key part of our stated mission of \u201cAdvancing Technology for Humanity.\u201d Therefore, it is no surprise that the majority of the financial support for SKPL comes from generous IEEE-Region 4 members and their employers, and dedicated volunteers run the program. Becoming involved in SKPL is easy and the personal rewards are substantial.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><span style=\"font-size: 12pt\">Please consider donating your time or treasure to this great program.
