Trust is built through evidence, testing, and openness.
Materials are developed by people, strengthened through review and real-world testing, and revised when evidence or experience shows that something can be better.
Multiple forms of evidence
Research & sourcing
Claims are checked against appropriate sources.
Peer & expert review
Relevant facts and procedures receive independent attention.
Physical build testing
Projects are assembled using specified parts and instructions.
Educator, family & learner testing
Real users reveal clarity and support needs.
Defined status labels
Status labels describe the stage of a particular material or project; they do not mean every STEMTEQ offering has completed that stage.
In development
Still being designed; not final.
Prototype tested
Built and operated internally.
Pilot tested
Used by selected participants and revised.
Released
Published with a version, instructions, and limitations.
Human-developed, responsibly assisted
OpenAI’s ChatGPT has assisted with drafting, organization, critique, content architecture, and interface prototyping. AI output is not treated as authoritative evidence and does not replace human review or physical testing.
If you find an error, we want to know
Safety concerns, factual errors, failed builds, unclear instructions, accessibility issues, and conflicting evidence help improve STEMTEQ.
