Abstract

National Biomechanics Day continues to expose thousands of youth to the biomechanics discipline each year. As part of the 2022 events, Seattle University used its Kinesiology Mobile Lab to host multiple National Biomechanics Day events across Washington state, engaging over 600 youth in a one-month period. This case study in hands-on experiential learning highlights the use of on-site demonstrations to increase accessibility to STEM education and educational resources.
