President Obama Kicks Off “Educate to Innovate”
Finally! A President who gets it! Check out this video in which Obama kicks off the the Educate to Innovate initiative. In another video, he speaks about the FIRST Robotics competition and the importance of getting our students excited about Science and Technology:
FIRST Robotics Competition – Waterloo 2010
One of the most life altering experiences for me was being one of the judges for the FIRST Competition last year. Fast forward to 1:03:00 to see us judges making a fool out of ourselves in front of thousands of spectators. Ahem….we’ll do anything for FIRST. :) I’m so proud of all the kids who choose to participate in this awe inspiring competition.
In fact, last year, I had the good fortune of getting to meet Dean Kamen at the ASME conference in Boston. If you don’t know this by now, Dean Kamen is my HERO!!!
