About this journal

Aims and scope

Connected Science Learning is a journal that highlights STEM education experiences that bridge the gap between in-school and out-of-school settings. The online journal features articles about highly effective programs and shares research that connects preK–16 STEM learning in schools and out-of-school settings, specifically highlighting effective mechanisms for collaboration and cocreation. In addition to being a valuable resource for a broad range of STEM education professionals, this journal is useful to policy makers, corporations, foundations, and others seeking to identify, advance, and invest in STEM education.
