"The Afterschool Making Projects with Design Thinking and Mathematics with Latinx Communities (Amped 4 Making) project is developing and piloting an afterschool program of mathematics-oriented design and making infused with the core values of civil rights leader Cesar Chavez.
Amped 4 Making engages middle-school Latinx youth from the agricultural regions of the Southwest United States in community-focused maker projects, thereby broadening participation in STEM.
TERC and the Cesar Chavez Foundation (CCF) Education Fund are collaborating to co-develop this program, and piloting is taking place in CCF afterschool programs".
