I met Dean Kamen...woo hoo!


Yesterday was a great day!!  I met Dean Kamen founder of F.I.R.S.T. (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) the non-profit organization that is the basis for the Washburn Robotics team, Segway inventor, and innovator of the 21st century.  His energy is contagious when he talks about prepping K-12 students for life in the 21st century and the engineering skill sets they will require to succeed and keep America strong in the marketplace.  My robotics students tell me I'm a nerd.....oh well, it was still a great day!!
