Engineering and Technology: Past, Present, and Future (Grades 1-4)
This club will journey through how various STEM fields evolved as students learn the origins of scientific discoveries, technological breakthroughs, and engineered inventions that have significantly impacted our society. As students make their voyage through a sea of design challenges and apply the engineering design process, they will speculate what the future holds for these technologies and inventions, and be able to apply them into their daily lives.

Automotive Engineering: Design, Build, and Race (Grades 5-8)
This club will navigate through the design and manufacturing of automobiles. From engines to wheels, students will understand how various automotive components are built and innovated to develop alternative vehicle technologies to propel the future of our world. As students dive deeper into the automotive industry, they will have an opportunity to design their own automobile, applying the engineering design process and their knowledge to the test. On Your Marks, Get Set, Go !

Storytime: Density Column
Join Let's Talk Science Outreach to read Joanna Cole and Jane B Mason’s book, "The Magic School Bus Ups and Downs: A Book About Floating And Sinking" and complete a hands-on science activity about the density of liquids!
In this activity, students will learn about liquids and density. Using everyday household items, they will discover the different densities of liquids through a layered density experiment.

Exploring Energy Systems Webinar – Energy Systems and the Environment: Leaks, Losses, and Lessons Learned
No matter the type, all forms of energy have environmental impacts. This session will examine the environmental impacts that conventional energy systems continue to have, as well as the cumulative impacts of developing and deploying renewable energy systems. We will also discuss tools we can use to compare the total impacts of different systems across their life cycle, and techniques and methods for mitigating and remediating environmental damage.

Black History Month Panel Discussion: Black Women in STEM
In celebration of Black History Month, WiSER is hosting a virtual panel discussion showcasing the contributions, achievements, and lived experiences of a diverse group of black women in STEM. Our event will be held virtually via Zoom on February 17th, 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm MST.
This event is sponsored by the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta (APEGA).

Learn to Suture with CAGIS (Ages 7-12)
Calling all future healthcare professionals! Did you know that doctors sometimes learn to suture by practicing on fruit? What an aPEELing idea! Grab a banana, tomato, or grape, and let’s do some training. This session will have you in stitches!

Storytime: Dancing Popcorn
Join Let's Talk Science Outreach to read Adam Rubin's book, "Big Bad Bubble" and complete a hands-on science activity about carbon dioxide bubbles!
In this activity, students will learn about carbon dioxide and how bubbles are formed. Using everyday household materials, they will then try an experiment where carbon dioxide bubbles cause popcorn kernels to quickly rise and sink within a jar.

Let’s Talk Cancer
Let’s Talk Cancer was established to facilitate knowledge transfer between academia and high school students regarding the field of cancer biology. We hope to improve attending students' basic knowledge of cancer and the challenges of cancer research through interactive hands-on activities, panel discussions, and seminars from researchers and medical professionals.

Bioengineering Day Symposium
Let's Talk Science at the University of Toronto St George is excited to host the second annual Bioengineering Day symposium for students in Grades 11-12 across Canada! This year the theme is 'Bioengineering from Bench to Bedside' where a range of topics will be discussed to give students an insight on how bioengineering plays an important role in developing therapeutics from the research stage all the way to the clinical stage.

Girl Up STEM for Social Good Bootcamp: Exploring Space
Are you interested in aerospace engineering, astrophysics, and robotic technology? Do you have dreams of being an astronaut one day? Join this bootcamp to learn more about careers in space and deepen your understanding of the historical accomplishments of women in the space field!

Black Youth Coding Club
This STEM program has been developed by Black STEM Students to provide Black youth with role models and a safe space to explore STEM and develop skills critical for the future. This program is offered at no cost to families with the generous support of Actua and the Government of Canada’s CanCode program.

Water Filtration Activity (Ages 7-12)
Although water covers 73% of the Earth’s surface, only 3% of it is fresh water. Most of the Earth’s freshwater is frozen in glaciers, found deep underground, or otherwise inaccessible for use. Luckily, water is a renewable resource! Join us to make a water filter and learn about water contamination sources, the water cycle, and water filtration.

Let’s Talk Pollution
Are you concerned about the fate of the environment? Are you considering attending university? Register now for Let's Talk Pollution and learn about the different ways you can address pollution!

Medicine and Science: Two Sides of the Same Coin
Dr. Craig Bryan, M.D, will be speaking about his experiences as a medical doctor and as a research scientist. This webinar will cover his personal experiences in both fields, and how they led him along a confusing, but interesting path. Finally, Dr. Craig will focus on how clinical and basic sciences complement each other and are two sides of the same coin.

Storytime: Fat, Fur and Feathers
Join Let's Talk Science Outreach to read Jean-Denis Côté's book, "Winter Surprises" and complete a hands-on science activity about how animals keep warm!
In this activity, students will learn about animals in the winter and how they survive the cold. Using everyday household items, students will test whether fat, fur and feathers keep their hands warm by placing their hands on ice or snow.

Let’s Talk Great Lakes: Invasive Species
The Great Lakes are five lakes in North America that are all freshwater lakes. This freshwater makes up 20 per cent of the world’s surface freshwater.
Four of these lakes are located in Ontario Canada: Lake Huron, Lake Ontario, Lake Erie, and Lake Superior. Lake Michigan is the only great lake that is entirely in the United States of America. These lakes are extremely important for aquatic life, ecosystems, drinking water, irrigation, as well as transportation. Invasive species, pollution, habitat destruction, as well as climate change are having significant impacts on these lakes.
This initiative is to highlight these issues, potential career opportunities associated with the Great Lakes, as well as to give hands-on opportunities to high school students in the aquatic and terrestrial fieldwork that is performed in and around these lakes.
