Now imagine yourself as a Betabox Guide! Betabox Learning operates a fleet of mobile technology labs that provide educational hands-on learning experiences at K12 schools in the southeastern US. Our mission is to spark and sustain hands-on learning in K12 schools. We are seeking to hire a part-time STEM educator based in or around Montgomery or Birmingham, Alabama. That is ready to join a small team making a big impact for thousands of students in rural and low-income communities.
As a Betabox Guide, your job is to energetically communicate STEM/CTE concepts to students of diverse backgrounds and age levels.
A typical day in the life of a Betabox Guide:
- Wake up EARLY and drive to an underserved school in Alabama.
- Find the Betabox Mobile Learning lab on the school campus and set up along with the Technical Guide who you will teach alongside you for the day.
- Decide if you should drink coffee or not because while you are in need of caffeine, the school is not yet open (so neither is the bathroom).
- Greet the first group of 20 students when they walk out to the mobile lab. Intuit how to quickly engage and build trust with this new group of students.
- Direct these students to hands-on learning stations where you will be their guide on the side as they learn about self-driving cars, drones, electronics, 3D printing, and whatever else you have planned for them.
- Wrap up that class, hopefully having inspired a few students to consider STEM careers as a possibility for them.
- Scramble to reset the lab because the next group of students is coming in 3.5 minutes. Repeat for the rest of the school day.
- At the end of the day, connect with the teacher who brought students out to the lab. Let them know that this is just the beginning, and that Betabox will send them dozens of free resources and materials that they will use to sustain the energy you’ve generated amongst the students back in the classroom.
