As with previous years, a major objective of NSTW '97--as well as all
NSTW-related events throughout the year--is to enlighten children and
adults about the importance of science and engineering through hands-on
learning activities and events.
First held in 1985, NSTW is an informal science and engineering education
outreach program of NSF. Since its inception, NSTW has gradually expanded
in scope and impact, involving millions of Americans in national and local
events.
