Girls Belong in STEM
Hoping to inspire more girls to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields, Madelyn created a STEM exploration website targeted toward middle school girls. The website included five modules, each centered around a different STEM field: engineering, mathematics, biology, chemistry, and computer science. Each module included an overview, a list of related careers, information about prominent women in the field, and a related activity they can do at home. The website also recommended high school courses and extracurricular activities, and had additional links and resources for further exploration. She advertised her website on social media sites for student-run organizations and created a pamphlet about her project that was shared with middle schools in Warren County.
