Dr. Mike Little has graciously let us use the public technology area.
He is looking forward to expanding STEM projects here.
Then we got ready to hear our speaker - Massimo Bardi, Ph.D.
He said it is important that the students do what their are doing
- using their brain to do this kind of heavy and fun thinking.
He talked about how the eye does not really see what is out there like
a chair.
It is the mind that takes the information and forms what we "see".
The students enjoyed speaking with you to able to get an idea of how
the eye relates to the Brain
The group working on arthritis also was interested that a happy brain
can influence how bad arthritis is for a person.
We are going to program the robot to do the heart missions.
Load, check,
works
Here are two missions done.
It was a beautiful day and the lunch hour was well spent in motion
outside.
After lunch they got another Frisbee. Now back to work.
They are documenting what they do.
At the end the groups got together to do their debriefing.
Those that had not gone to a State Tournament asked questions about
what happens there.
