The STEM for All Video Showcase is now at the end of its funding cycle. We are grateful to NSF for funding this effort from 2015 - 2023. We have now converted this Video Showcase to a static site in order to ensure that you will have continued access to all videos. You can still search the videos by presenter name, use multiple filters to find those that are of interest to you, and read the discussions that took place.
Please note that some of the information below may no longer apply, as the event is now closed. Videos from all Video Showcases (2015 - 2022) are accessible on the STEM for All Multiplex.
Guests and interested members of the public are invited to browse the presentations and watch the videos provided by the presenters. During the week of this event, May 10 - 17, you are encouraged to contribute to the discussion for each presentation by posting comments and questions. You can also vote for your favorite presentations to help determine the “Public Choice.”
Having a member account provides many benefits to Video Showcase participants. Anyone participating and commenting during the week-long event can create an account using the link on the Home page (available May 10 - 17).

In addition, when you set up an account for the Showcase, you will also become a member of the STEM for All Multiplex website (you can login with the same creditials you set up here). All videos from past Showcase events are compiled here for you to browse, make and share playlists, as well as take part in Theme of the Month webinars and discussions. Learn more about the Multiplex.
Yes, all guests visiting the presentations can post questions and feedback to presenters by posting to the discussion area on their presentation pages. Presenters will be monitoring this area too, so be sure to check back to see replies that are posted to your questions. All comments must be posted by 8 PM EDT on Tuesday, May 17. After this time, all posted comments will still remain available to view on the presentation discussions, but no new comments or replies can be added.
You can find any contact information that has been provided on each presentation page.
Anyone visiting these presenters’ pages can see the questions and replies that are posted to these discussions.
Click on “Presentations” (top right of the screen) to view all presentations. Use keywords to filter presentations and view those that are in your areas of interest.
During the event, facilitators will select a few videos, which will recognize extraordinary creativity in the use of video to share innovative work to determine “Facilitators’ Choice.” In addition, presenters (all those who participated in creating a video) will have the opportunity to select their favorite videos to determine “Presenters’ Choice.” Finally, all public visitors to the event will be asked to vote for videos that they find most compelling. Those with the greatest number of public votes will receive “Public Choice.” Read more about these types of recognitions and why we have them.
All presentations that are selected by facilitators, presenters, and by the public will be announced on May 18, 2022 and will be acknowledged on this event website at the end of the showcase (there are no monetary awards). They will be broadly recognized throughout the NSF and STEM Ed communities as well.
Yes, captioning is available for the videos. Click the ‘cc’ button in the bottom right to turn them on/off, as necessary.
It is our hope that this competition will be successful in engaging the public in this work. To encourage this, “Public Choice” will be given to the presentations that receive the most votes during the showcase event (May 10-17). All visitors, presenters, and facilitators can participate in the voting for Public Choice.
From each presentation page, you can vote for Public Choice. When you click on the Public Choice button, you will see 3 options:

You must vote for four presentations in total.
Along with our project partners, TERC staff have invited facilitators from our respective communities to help seed discussions and set a positive tone for constructive, collegial discourse. Groups of three or four facilitators are assigned to a group of approximately 10-12 presentations. Each facilitator group recognizes one presentation per group to detemine Facilitators' Choice.
Facilitators will use the following rubric to determine the presentations that will receive Facilitators’ Choice recognition:
There are several reasons.
