Project details

What we need
  • Feedback on the current website’s layout, user functionality, mobile-friendliness, visual design, content, and other key features
  • Clear articulation of the Organization’s goals for the website
  • Recommendations for improvements to help achieve the Organization’s desired goals
  • Note: If you are looking for a more specific, in-depth audit of your website's design and usability, try our Website Usability Audit project
What we have in place
  • We currently have an established website and an outline of challenges, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have access to a volunteer manager to answer questions, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,752 , allowing us to provide 20 afterschool programs in the month of May.

The success of our organization depends on an effective website to communicate and support our mission. Without your help, we cannot develop a major facet of our online presence. Your skills will empower us to convey our vision and create a better future for STEM.

Our mission

CityScience is committed to raising the quality of science education and supporting environmental stewardship. By using the natural and built environments of cities as laboratories for active learning, we transform teaching to make science relevant and engaging for PreK-8 students.

What we do

CityScience connects science education to urban environments with place-based programming for students, teachers, schools, and communities. The four entry points to improve the STEM capacity at schools and communities:
(1) Capacity-Building Partnerships connects professional STEM coaches with high-need schools to create customized curricula and capacity-building solutions for teachers and school leaders.
(2) Staff Workshops support teacher excellence through onsite professional development, coaching, and a Summer Institute.
(3) Student Explorations are afterschool programs taught by CityScience’s expert STEM Coaches on site at K-8 public schools, after-school settings, and summer camps.
(4) Lending Library provides low or no cost resources to educators seeking STEM activities, supplies and reading materials.

Testimonials

Hitu provided an incredible deliverable that completely exceeded our expectations. She was very professional, keeping up communication through emails and phone calls when needed. Her website audit went through 3 drafts, and with every step, she was able to explain her process and how it would benefit our organization. We will be using her website audit both for a marketing foundation for the future and to use through a website redesign. She is truly a joy to work with!
