John Muir CSW represented projects in STEAM education at the Bay Area STEAM Colloquium on Friday. The wind tube was a big hit with the more creative folks that came by our table at the Showcase Gallery. We displayed projects that students and interns made and had our wind tube and supplies ready for making flying machines. Our New Leaf interns enjoyed the experience and were a huge help both at our booth and to Dr. Rona Zollinger, the final key note speaker. Her speech was (according to one of the interns) "by far the best talk of the day". It was deeply inspirational for me to hear her speak publicly about New Leaf, what's been accomplished so far, and our plans for the future. One of the interns opened Rona's talk with a breathing session for the entire auditorium & another intern closed it with a visualization of the difference each individual would make in the lives of their students and throughout their community. I was honored to be a part of such an insightful, spirited and fun crowd.
