STEMspark offers free access to a curated library of 3D animated process equipment and microlearning modules—designed specifically for energy and manufacturing STEM programs, targeting middle and high school students.
These are the same tools used to train operators and technicians in refineries, chemical plants, and other industrial facilities around the world, designed to spark curiosity and connect classroom learning to real-world careers.
Students learn best when they can see how things work. With animations of pumps, compressors, heat exchangers, distillation columns, and more, STEMspark brings industrial technology to life in a way that textbooks can’t.
Whether you’re teaching fluid systems or hosting an engineering camp, STEMspark is an easy, effective, and completely free way to boost engagement and show students the “why” and the “how” behind STEM.
We believe students deserve the chance to explore careers that make a difference, careers that keep communities safe and industries moving. STEMspark was developed to help bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world application, offering free, engaging resources that bring complex equipment and processes to life. By presenting technical concepts in a more accessible and visual way, we aim to inspire and equip the next generation to succeed in impactful careers.
Each STEMspark module includes 3D animations of real industrial equipment, interactive narration with built-in terminology pop-ups, and microlearning quizzes to reinforce understanding—all in a mobile-friendly format that requires no special hardware.
It’s perfect for STEM classrooms and CTE programs, engineering or energy-focused career camps, project-based learning environments, and teachers who want to make abstract STEM concepts more tangible and relevant.
It’s backed by over 30 years of experience in human learning. Each module is designed to align with educational standards and technical pathways, combining animation, narration, and assessment tools.
