In ASCE National Capital Section, we produced a very nice commemorative book for our Centennial Anniversary. Its a coffee table format, around 130 pages, with the stories behind our major local achievements. It includes lots of rare photos of construction. We provide free copies to the K-12 schools that we visit, and take to other STEM events in the area. We also have nice glossy posters that we hand out with some photos from the book.

I’m interested in ideas for tools to use for STEM outreach to K-12 students, particularly in regards to the fields of Environmental and Water Resources. ASCE has a lot of good tools, which are more focused on Civil Engineering in general. Any ideas would be appreciated!
