When we wonder about something, we ask questions to help us understand it. Asking Questions is the second step of the scientific method. In science, we ask questions about things we don’t know the answer to but want to discover. We ask questions to help us solve problems.

ABOUT SCIENTIST MAKER: Scientist Maker empowers young minds with scientific thinking skills for life. In an AI-driven era, we’re equipping kids with critical thinking skills by reimagining the scientific method. In one accessible platform, our holistic approach integrates storytelling, inquiry-based learning curriculum, and citizen science. Our five interactive, environmental lessons are focused on empowering learners through (a) the scientific method, (b) real-world applications, and (c) authentic assessment. Our lessons may supplement, support, and extend any elementary science curriculum.

Step 1: Inspire with Multi-Award Winning Animation: Compelling videos that spark scientific curiosity. Our animations harness the power of world-class storytelling and diverse characters so that all students can envision themselves as future scientists and innovators.

Step 2: Educate with Inquiry-Based Learning: Accessible, hands-on projects that reinforce learning. Our standards-aligned curriculum for elementary school employs cost-effective, hands-on inquiry-based learning, shown to boost science understanding by up to 20% more than traditional methods. This approach caters to learner variability while ensuring affordability and deep engagement by emphasizing interactive and practical experiences.

Step 3: Engage with Local Community Science Research. Citizen science mobile application for real-world impact. Students participate in meaningful environmental research and contribute through real-world science projects in their communities through our Debris Tracker mobile application. This practical approach deepens science engagement, linking classroom concepts to community-based projects. Research shows that active participation in citizen science increases persistence in young learners, fostering a lasting interest in science and environmental stewardship.
