Rocky Mountain Power was thrilled to participate in United Way’s STEM Action Day event at the George Eccles Ogden Dinosaur Park in Ogden Utah this past Saturday. The event had over 2,000 attend, full of children of all ages learning about STEM from dozens of vendors. Families learned about power systems and safety from local RMP employees who demonstrated a distribution system model. Rocky Mountain Power is grateful to engage with our communities promoting the exciting applications of STEM in use.

Did you know that according to a 2020 University of Idaho news article, "the science and technology sectors in Idaho have boomed over the past decade. Today, 25% of Idaho's revenue and 70% of exports are from those industries and the number of high-tech jobs in Idaho has increased by 61%. Yet, Idaho-based companies are having trouble filling open positions with the local workforce." Investing in STEM and making a donation to Idaho STEM Action Center Foundation you will: Empower Students: Spark curiosity and engagement through interactive learning experiences, like the International Science & Engineering Fair. Equip Educators: Offer professional development opportunities to enhance STEM teaching skills. Bridge the Gap: Ensure equitable access to quality STEM education for all Idaho students, especially those in rural and underserved communities. Donate now: https://lnkd.in/gBmEV-uy

THERE IS SUCH A THING AS AGE-APPROPRIATE MUSEUMS! There's a huge gap between children's museum and just museums, specially for kids age under 5. Only real educators and parents with kids this age can understand the struggle in keeping a child engaged in a museum. If it's not age-appropriate, kids will act out, climb on exhibits, run the hallway, or engage with non-exhibits. I know this first hand when a preschool brought the kids to the science museum with dinosaur exhibits. My 2yo then started climbing at the exhibit table. There was a projection to the wall but the sound was monotonaus and the screen isn't interactive that kids ignored it. Young kids walked from one zone to the other, confused. In the end, children throw tantrums as we go from floor to floor. They sat down to do art, that can be pretty much done in the classroom. Museums are not one size fits all specially if the intended audience are those who can read, as these kids can't read the literature around. Meanwhile, children's museum are designed for kids to learn through play. From water play to ball runs, kids spend time to figure out how the world works without forcing knowledge to their mouths. 📍Hong Kong Children's Discovery Museum #childrensmuseum #childrensmuseums #kidsmuseum #kidsactivitiesideas #preschoolactivity #preschoollife #kindergartenactivities #kindergartenlife #hongkongtour #kidsideas #threenager #threenagerlife #toddlerhood #toddlerplay #earlyyearsideas #earlychildhoodeducator #earlylearning101 #ageappropriate #earlyeducation

One of the keys to success are strong partnerships......
I was able to spend some time with Brittany Telander the executive director of AIAMF (Aerospace Industry Association of Michigan Foundation) and take her around West Michigan earlier this week. We met with Keli Christopher, Ph.D. from STEM Greenhouse, Danielle Schneider from Women in Manufacturing, and Sara McMurray & Angela Kimber Ehlich from Women of Aerospace Industry Association of Michigan (WAIAM). I left each conversation so thankful and energized from the current and future collaboration that was discussed. West Michigan is filled with kind, caring, and passionate females who are leading with their hearts and souls to help lift others up in our diverse and under represented STEM community. There is definitely work that needs to be done, but conversations and collaborations like these are steps in the right direction!
