Last day for our NASA Summer of Innovation program. The program went pretty well. The middle school kids are fun to work with. They have lots of energy and and good ideas. There were plenty of questions and discussion about the activities. They like the ones with stuff the moves - soda rockets, paper planes, balloon powered cars. We introduced some new problems solving skills following the Engineering Design Process as the warm-up for several of the building projects. We hope that we kept their interest in STEM related topics over the summer.
Thanks to all the WikiEducators who followed our progress. We hope that you enjoyed our Summer of Innovation as much as we did! Special thanks to those of you who let us know you were following the postings. The kids were really excited that other people around the world were learning about them, too.
