It was great to have Director Snow and COO Dr. Elder with us at #STEMDayIAFair this year!
Yesterday, Director McKenzie Snow and COO Deborah Elder took in the sights, sounds and wonderful hands-on learning opportunities at the Department’s annual STEM Day at the Fair. Director Snow and Dr. Elder met with many young learners and students who were taking part in guided activities, shows and other STEM-related fun that were offered throughout the day. Business and community partners provided kids with several opportunities to explore STEM through building towers, programming robots, using virtual reality and more. Director Snow and Dr. Elder joined in the fun, too, and tried an innovative virtual simulation in welding. Thank you to the Department’s Iowa Governor’s STEM Advisory Council team and our community partners for another great year at the Iowa State Fair! Iowa Governor's STEM Advisory Council
