Sonia Kovalevsky Days (SK Days) are nationally-held outreach events that are commonly organized by local chapters of the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM) to encourage young women to continue their study of mathematics. The AWM Student Chapter at Worcester Polytechnic Institute hosted virtual renditions of SK Day for middle school girls in Spring 2020 and 2021. This paper discusses the implementation of these events, including the virtual program logistics and five interactive online mathematics activities. Participant feedback suggests a successful transition from an in-person to online format of SK Day, with benefits to both the middle school participants and the undergraduate student volunteers. The activities and online resources described in this article have the potential to be utilized in future hybrid outreach events. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
