Dr. Sibrina N. Collins, Executive Director of the Marburger STEM Center, Lawrence Technological University, Southfield, MI

Host: GSLC

How can we engage the next generation of chemistry leaders with the periodic table of elements? In this conversation, we will focus on using popular movies such as Marvel Studios’ Black Panther, The Avengers, Hidden Figures and Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein for classroom engagement with students in both the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) and the Humanities disciplines. Furthermore, we will highlight the public engagement initiatives for LTU’s Marburger STEM Center.
