Buckle up and hang on as Mary Bruce Clemons unpacks the topic of STEAM in this idea conversation. Many will remember Mary from her hero episode where she journeyed from Harley sales to engineering and for those that missed it you'll quickly pick up on her passion for industry. Many are familiar with STEM initiatives and Mary explains how the "A" (which is where arts are introduced) is where true connection can be made with so many young minds. She breaks down how modern medicine would not be what it is today without the focus on arts and how doctors communicate visually to solve the most complex problems. As far as when to start concentrating efforts with the next generation she suggests that around eight years old is a great age to begin introducing these concepts. At that age they can handle critical thought and problem solving and most importantly their egos won't hold them back from embracing these areas and growing individually. Mary explains how she's been involved with STEAM Day and the impact that it made on the kids and the community. From K-12 thousands of kids came together to learn about many of the areas of STEAM and who knows the future paths that were paved. It's about getting hands on and bringing the concepts to life and with the right support and focus events like these make a tremendous impact.Grab your kids and listen to this fun filled conversation that could change their life.Guest: Mary Bruce Clemons - Industrial Controls Technician at TW ControlsHost: Chris GraingerExecutive Producer: Adam SheetsPodcast Editor: Andi ThrowerTW ControlsSTEAM initiatives:Steam Day: https://eng.vt.edu/steam-day-2020.htmlLocal education institutions contribute content and engagement to a wide range of regional youth k-12 via an annual trade show and interactive experience in Roanoke, Virginia.

From selling Harley's to insurance/finance to now a wonderful Industrial Control Technician Mary Bruce Clemons' journey will have you on the edge of your seat. Her passion for STEAM - yes you read that right - comes through with everything she does. She connected early with art and sees the beauty in using that as a means to inspire the next generation of innovators. Mary believes in the power of volunteering and feels this is a great way to learn what your passion is. She sees it as a great opportunity to help a cause and build your network as well. Her mindset is to go into these engagements knowing that someone there knows something that you don't. From there her suggested path is to ask those smart people dumb questions and then soak in the wisdom!Mary has a passion for industry and is a doer at heart. She loves it when she has her task list by her side and a drill in her hand. For fun she finds satisfaction in making postal mail for people she cares about. If she can make someone's day for the cost of a stamp that brings a big smile to her face. Mary's lightning round is by far the most memorable and unique which speaks to her wonderful personality. She is an absolute hero and her story is sure to bless many and create inspiration for those wanting to following their dreams!

Un evento per il grande pubblico nel centro della città di Trieste per il festival “Science in the City” di ESOF2020: Venerdì 4 e Sabato 5 Settembre si svolgerà in Piazza Unità d'Italia il tradizionale appuntamento della Trieste (non-più-Mini) Maker Faire –che dal 2014 attira ogni anno migliaia di visitatori nel campus del Centro di Fisica di Miramare– e che con questa edizione diventa più grande, abbraccia la scienza e le tecnologie spaziali e si sposta nella prestigiosa e affascinante sede del “salotto buono” della città di Trieste! Orario: Venerdì 4 e Sabato 5 Settembre dalle ore 14:00 alle 21:00. Ingresso gratuito! Nel centro di Trieste oltre un centinaio di makers e scienziati sono pronti ad accompagnare i partecipanti in un entusiasmante viaggio nella creatività, nella tecnologia e nella ricerca, per scoprire insieme invenzioni e progetti stupefacenti, sempre imparando ma alla maniera del maker: divertendosi, esplorando, giocando e sperimentando. L'evento fa parte del festival “Science in the City” di ESOF 2020: la Maker Faire Trieste –in questo anno 2020 che, pur nelle mille difficoltà del periodo, onora il capoluogo giuliano del titolo di città europea della scienza– perde il “Mini” nel titolo per crescere a livello internazionale e incorpora al suo interno un settore dedicato alla scienza e uno incentrato invece su scienza e tecnologia dello spazio. Insomma, la già spettacolare festa dell'ingegno e della creatività si reinventa e si espande. Come già negli anni scorsi l'evento Maker Faire Trieste gode del sostegno istituzionale e finanziario della Regione Friuli Venezia Giulia, mentre il Comune di Trieste è partner e co-organizzatore dell'evento, assieme all'ICTP e al Laboratorio dell'Immaginario Scientifico di Grignano: quest'ultimo, presente già dalla prima edizione a Grignano, quest'anno porterà le sue storiche e preziose competenze nella divulgazione di argomenti scientifici e tecnologici e provvederà alla complessa organizzazione della logistica nel centro cittadino. Partner tecnico è il FabLab Scientifico dell'ICTP, che diffonde e promuove il nome della città di Trieste a livello internazionale attraverso la rete delle Maker Faire, di MAKE Community e dei Fablab. La maggioranza dei maker proviene solitamente dalle quattro province di Trieste, Udine, Gorizia e Pordenone ma come nelle passate edizioni si attendono anche espositori da Slovenia, Croazia e altre nazioni europee. La Maker Faire Trieste 2020 non sarà solamente un'esposizione di invenzioni, progetti e prototipi originali dei maker, ma comprenderà anche un settore per scoprire e interagire con la scienza e uno incentrato su scienza e tecnologia dello spazio. Obiettivo primario dell'evento è quello di avvicinare soprattutto i giovani al lato creativo di questi campi del sapere umano, di appassionarli al loro affascinante mondo e –perché no?– di incuriosirli verso un possibile futuro professionale in questi ambiti. Il pubblico a cui i partner e gli espositori si rivolgono spazierà da quello dei giovanissimi fino agli adulti.
