MIT is trying to get more kids interested in science, tech, engineering, and math with a site called MIT + K12 where kids can watch short videos of MIT students doing different experiements. MIT is filled wtih thousands of brilliant students who have access to sophisticated labs and equipment. This project gives students a way to give back by letting them become "experimental partners" to teachers around the country. Teachers can suggest different topics or assignments and the students will create the videos. The research they've done so far is positiive and the kids really like the videos.
