"ESRC : Louise Couceiro : ES/P000681/1" In recent years, there has been a surge in non-profit organisations providing free online resources aiming to inspire girls to 'get into STEM' in Canada. Resources include instructional videos, blog posts and 'role model' biographies of women working in STEM. To maximise the potential of these online educational resources, research is urgently needed to better understand the content, the objectives behind their development, and how they are being used. This project aims to do this by focusing on the work of three non-profit organisations: Science World, the Canadian Association for Girls in Science and STEMforGIRLS. Following analysis of the organisations' online resources, I will conduct interviews with developers and a group of girls who are engaging/have engaged with the resources. The findings will be invaluable for the development of future resources and the evaluation of similar initiatives.

“ ESRC：Louise Couceiro：ES/P000681/1”近年来，非营利组织提供了免费的在线资源，旨在激发女孩在加拿大'进入STEM'。资源包括教学视频，博客文章和“榜样”传记，这些传记是在STEM中工作的女性。为了最大程度地提高这些在线教育资源的潜力，迫切需要进行研究，以更好地了解内容，开发背后的目标以及如何使用它们。该项目旨在通过关注三个非营利组织的工作：科学界，加拿大女子科学和STEMFORGIRLS的工作。经过分析组织的在线资源，我将对开发人员和一群参与/参与资源的女孩进行采访。这些发现对于未来资源的发展和对类似计划的评估将是无价的。
