We are the MIT Educational Studies Program, a student-run organization at MIT. Throughout the year, we run educational programs for middle and high schoolers, and this spring we’ll be running our annual Spark the weekend of March 14–15. We’ll have classes on a wide range of topics, including Glow Lab: The Science of Bioluminescence, History of Animation in Film, 3D Design for Makers, How to Build a Solar Car, and more, taught by MIT students and community members!

This year, the program will take place on MIT campus and is open to 7th graders through 10th graders. Classes will take place from 10 AM - 6 PM ET Saturday and Sunday March 14–15. Student registration is done through a lottery system, where students indicate their preferred classes and classes are then assigned by lottery. Registration is open at http://esp.mit.edu/learnspk26 through Sunday, March 1.
