This August, the NeuroVivid project is bringing its Brain Computer Interface (BCI) makerspace experience to the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation (Waltham, MA). Middle school students can participate in this hands-on camp, designed with neurodivergent learners in mind and engaging for all students. In addition, educators are invited to join our facilitator training to explore the program’s innovative design and neuroinclusive approach.

Extreme climate impacts are increasing, and youth eco-anxiety is rising, while teachers who address climate change and its inequitable impacts often work in isolation. To address this need, this project will host annual, expenses-paid Climate Equity Institutes at the Schoodic Institute campus for high school teachers. Participants will explore equitable pedagogy, hear talks on the global and psychological impacts of climate change, and engage in guided field trips and independent inquiry.
