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.
Apparently the water exhibits have laid dry for several years. It's a little creepy - like a post-apocalypse movie.

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.

A wonderful place for children to learn about science and technology through interactive exhibits and displays.
Construction progress continues.

Dreyfuss + Blackford Architecture’s design for the Powerhouse Science Center re-envisions a historic riverfront structure as a hub for science education, exploration and promotion in the City of Sacramento. On the banks of the Sacramento River, the Science Center grows out from an abandoned power station building. As a principal component of the Riverfront activation, the Powerhouse Science Center anchors Robert T. Matsui Waterfront Park and borders the southern terminus of the 32-mile American River Bike Trail.
Vacant for over half a century, the structure undergoes a complete historic rehabilitation and the construction of a new floor level inside. A new two-story addition projects from the east side, containing a lobby, classrooms, offices and a cafe. A 110-seat planetarium is prominently on display with a zinc-clad hemispheric dome rising above the building’s mass. As representation of our place in the universe, the facade and building mass is sectioned by multiple planes, creating continuous vector lines that extend across the building and site. From satellites to world landmarks, the lines form connections with local and global points of interest.
The original PG&E Power Station B was designed in 1912 in the Beaux Arts Style by architect Willis Polk and was formally closed in 1954. It is on the National Register of Historic Places, California Register of Historic Places and the Sacramento Register of Historic & Cultural Resources. The Powerhouse Science Center is designed to achieve a USGBC LEED Rating of Silver.

Today is all about the science fair! from setting up, to judging... to take down and even parent teacher conferences in between... I'm spending the whole day at the school. Don't mind a bit, either.
