ROI hosted Vertical Alignment teams and Noyce Fellows on March 3 for a working session focused on implementing microelectronics education in schools.
Thanks to Made @ Plainfield and the Hendricks College Network for hosting! #STEMeducation#Microelectronics
SCALE K-12 Director, Tamara Moore, connected with colleagues at RMIT University’s ARC Centre of Excellence in Optical Microcombs for Breakthrough Science (COMBS) while visiting Australia—building international connections between cutting-edge research and K-12 STEM education. 🔬
The SCALE K-12 team is preparing to welcome 100+ teachers to Purdue University for our Summer Curriculum Workshop focused on microelectronics.
Educators will explore hands-on units and take them back to their classrooms helping prepare the future microelectronics workforce. 🔬
🎉 Lafayette teachers are leading the way in STEM!
Six LSC educators were named Noyce Fellows through Purdue, supported by SCALE K‑12 & @NSF.

🧀 Happy Cheese Lovers Day!
We brie-lieve learning should be fun—and maybe a little cheesy. SCALE K-12 is all about hands-on experiences that help students build real-world skills.

Carrie Russell, Michigan teacher at MLK Jr. Senior High (DPSCD), brought our SCALE K-12 “Let There Be Light” unit to life.
Students explored the connection between CAD + microelectronics by designing 3D enclosures with PCBs and LEDs—just like real-world engineers.
Welcome back to school! 📚✨
We hope students and educators are refreshed after winter break and ready for an exciting new semester of learning with SCALE K-12.
