Book overview

TIME Magazine's 2020 "Kid of the Year"
Innovate and Create

Our generation is growing up in a time where we're seeing problems that have never existed before. Older tools and technique don't necessarily work anymore to solve such issues. We need a different approach that builds on the latest developments in science and takes an alternate path to innovation. Now more than ever, it's time to come together to make a difference in society. But how exactly do we make that change?

Gitanjali Rao, innovator and America's Top Young Scientist, brings to you an interactive experience to help immerse students in the process of innovation. Recognized by ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and Marvel's Hero Project, the accomplished author builds on her experiences and provides a prescriptive step-by-step process for identifying problems and developing solutions. A Young Innovator's Guide to STEM strives to impact students, teachers, and educators to adapt to a new learning style--one that can have a positive impact on society.
