Courses & Experiments
Why STEM strives to conduct more engaging hands-on experiments for students both within and outside of our school community. We organize monthly visits to classrooms to teach young aspiring scientists.
Courses
Courses are for experiment classes held outside of our school in Daegu based on a Korean curriculum. Click on "Experiment Chart" below to view the specific details of the courses. Experiments conducted within the school are listed in the "Experiments" section below.
*If you would like Why STEM to visit and teach experiments in the courses, contact us through Gmail (whystem@dis.sc.kr) or Instagram (@why_stem). Location is limited to Daegu. You may also suggest changes or additions to the course material.
