SAC Domus

Designed for young people from 10 to 14 years old, SAC Domus has educators trained in this style of education and with attractive materials. The club will propose three blocks throughout the school year: Bird Scouts, Bug Safari and Cloud Search. SAC seeks to improve the quality and quantity of science and environmental learning opportunities available to youth outside the traditional classroom. Each year, between 400 and 800 schools, summer camps, libraries, and other organizations implement SAC in urban and rural North American settings. More than 62,000 youth and educators in over 400 communities have participated in SAC since 2011. Now, SAC comes to Europe with the Domus of the Museos Científicos Coruñeses.

Aim

Science Action Club (SAC) is the new Domus citizen science club in collaboration with the California Academy of Science in the United States. SAC is an after-school program that inspires youth to explore and connect with nature while learning science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Through dynamic experiences that integrate games and citizen science activities, the program awakens curiosity, fosters teamwork skills, and builds STEM identities. The club runs every week in Domus, the science centre devoted to the human kind on Museos Científicos Coruñeses, A Coruña, Spain.
