Oh they get a great experience at Williston central school… A middle school near here. A group including my friends Herman, Shannon, Isa and Brielle went into a seventh and eighth grade class of 70 kids to talk about engineering, biomimicry and what we do at Aida. We had four independent classes but we taught and two teams. Showed them some cool materials that we use at our company to build our amazing airplanes and show them some basic engineering process… Then we had them engineer a structure using spaghetti, toothpicks, marshmallows… You’ve probably tried this yourself. It was really fun to see what the students came up with. They had some great insights and great questions.
What’s interesting for me is that I’ve usually done my own stick… The microvolts to Meghan Holt… This is a totally new set of messages for me… And it was fun to get my head around it
It was so nice to be with students again! Can’t wait to do it again
nite all, nite sam
