YLC Outreach

Washington University in Saint Louis has a history of volunteer activities at The Youth Learning Center (YLC) in the Central West End in Saint Louis. Many WashU students function as volunteer mentors, tutors, or assistants at the YLC. This year's WashU iGEM team will be traveling to the YLC to give a demonstration, lesson, experiment, and survey to a group of 6th through 8th graders.

We will begin with a survey to gain preliminary knowledge of the kids' general understanding of genetic engineering, its pros and cons, and their interest in the study of the sciences.

The Lesson

The survey will be followed with a PowerPoint presentation (LINK HERE) complete with videos and useful information to keep the children engaged while providing them with am understanding of concepts about DNA and basic genetic engineering.

The Experiment
