STEM Speaker Series #1


 We began our parent STEM speaker series with one of our parents, Dmitry Genis, doing a wonderful presentation on the history of computers.

Speech Introduction

  Mr. Genis emphasized how important math is in STEM careers as well as how important it is to be able to collaborate and communicate with others.  A real bonus was a video he showed us on how robots are programed to deliver items from where they are stocked in a warehouse in order for these items to be shipped to customers.  In fact, we will be taking a field trip to his company in the spring!
