The Eckerd College Science Symposium was established in 2009 to promote the public understanding of science. Held during the College's Alumni Weekend, the Symposium encourages collaboration and communication among notable scientists, alumni, faculty and students and welcomes visitors to learn more about Eckerd College. Poster sessions offer everyone an opportunity to share their field and laboratory research.
The Science Carnival is sponsored by the CSU Channel Islands science departments under the leadership of Dr. Phil Hampton, Professor of Chemistry. This annual event first started in Fall 2009 with approximately 250 preschool through eighth (PK-8) grade students attending the event. Over 2200 PK-8 students and their families attended the 2016 Science Carnival.
Duke University Physics Department, Science Night 2010
Sep 22 four student volunteers from the Physics Dept’s Outreach Group joined the Chemistry Dept’s Outreach Group for “An Evening of Science” in front of the French Science Building. Using demonstrations, the students explained two topics they learned in mechanics, Newton’s 3rd Law and Waves.
The image here is of a Ruben’s Tube. The pipe has a speaker inserted in one end and the other end plugged. There is a line of small holes drilled along the top and a gas valve on the front – basically a long grill with a speaker in one end. (The Outreach group can cook hot dogs, too!) After turning on the gas and lighting, an amplified function generator sends a sine wave to the speaker at one of the tube’s resonant frequencies. The flame heights will vary according to the sound pressure level at each hole thus the standing wave in flames.

A visit to the Science Museum of Virginia where my Uncle was the Science Curator for close to its first 17 years. We made annual holiday trips to the museum.
On behalf of iLearn STEAM Crew, I would like to congratulate the participants of the 6th Annual North Jersey Science Olympiad. This year’s 300 Olympians worked in 20 teams to complete 14 challenges in science, technology, engineering and problem solving. It was a wonderful tournament with full of energy and enthusiasm. The four highest scoring teams were awarded trophies and individual students received 1st to 6th place medals.

Nashville is the capital and most populous city of the U.S. state of Tennessee. The city is the county seat of Davidson County and is located on the Cumberland River. It is the 23rd most-populous city in the United States.
Named for Francis Nash, a general of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, the city was founded in 1779. The city grew quickly due to its strategic location as a port on the Cumberland River and, in the 19th century, a railroad center. Nashville seceded with Tennessee during the American Civil War; in 1862 it was the first state capital in the Confederacy to fall to Union troops. After the war, the city reclaimed its position and developed a manufacturing base.
Since 1963, Nashville has had a consolidated city-county government, which includes six smaller municipalities in a two-tier system. The city is governed by a mayor, a vice-mayor, and a 40-member metropolitan council; 35 of the members are elected from single-member districts, while the other five are elected at-large. Reflecting the city's position in state government, Nashville is home to the Tennessee Supreme Court's courthouse for Middle Tennessee, one of the three divisions.
A major center for the music industry, especially country music, Nashville is commonly known as "Music City". It is also home to numerous colleges and universities, including Tennessee State University, Vanderbilt University, Belmont University, Fisk University, Trevecca Nazarene University, and Lipscomb University, and is sometimes referred to as "Athens of the South" due to the large number of educational institutions. Nashville is also a major center for the healthcare, publishing, private prison, banking, automotive, and transportation industries. Entities with headquarters in the city include Asurion, Bridgestone Americas, Captain D's, CoreCivic, Dollar General, Hospital Corporation of America, LifeWay Christian Resources, Logan's Roadhouse, and Ryman Hospitality Properties.

Adventure Science Center is a non-profit science museum for children located in Nashville, Tennessee.
The museum features over 175 hands-on interactive exhibits with themes including biology, physics, visual perception, listening, mind, air and space, energy and earth science. The building includes 44,000 square feet of exhibit space, a 75-foot-tall adventure tower and the Sudekum Planetarium.
Mr. McAlduff answers a question about the Winchestser High School phone system. The current system will be replaced with a Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) system, allowing teachers to reliably retrieve their messages by voice or by computer. The state will reimburse Winchester $1250 per student (capacity of the new design is 1370 students) for technology expenses. Neighboring school districts report that technology uprgrades cost an additional $600 per student. The plans include capacity for 3 wireless devices for each student and faculty member.

MINISTER ENGLISH ANNOUNCES €2.8 MILLION SCIENCE FOUNDATION IRELAND INVESTMENT IN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING & MATHS PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT & EDUCATION INITIATIVES
The Minister for Research, Innovation and Skills, Damien English, TD today announced details of a €2.8 million national investment in 42 initiatives aimed at engaging the Irish public in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) through Science Foundation Ireland’s Discover funding awards. This investment further supports our national aim to have the most scientifically engaged public; breaking down barriers and creating more accessible paths to skill acquisition and ultimately fulfilling careers in science, technology, engineering and maths. Geographically dispersed, it is estimated that these STEM projects will touch 3.6 million people in Ireland by the end of 2017.
