- Summer Math Applications in Science with Hands-On Experience for Girls
SMASH is a special program for rising 8th grade students, with an emphasis on encouraging girls to explore science and math, and designed to build confidence in science and math.
The curriculum focuses on improving the two attitudinal values, perceived usefulness of mathematic and mathematical self-efficacy, impacting math-related achievement. Students about to enter the 8th grade, regardless of gender, can join us at RIT for five days of cool science fun with math.
