Full STEAM Ahead

I represented the creative or the “A” in STEAM at the APGA 2013 Conference: Garden Evolution held in Phoenix. With my education colleagues from the Desert Botanical Garden. APGA is the American Public Garden Association. We presented to a packed house on how to use STEM in a garden education program and more specifically how to add the Arts right in the middle to create a more well rounded offing to students during tours. We avoid the typical power point and instead I created ‘slides’ to serve as a set design for us to speak in front. This allowed the focus to be on our words and the images from nature and industrial, recycled bits and pieces as inspiration only; not more words of information on the screen. The talk was very successful with a lot of interest nationally. Here are the slide images with the full power point downloadable at the bottom.

Periodic Text Message Table

This Periodic Text Message Table is such a perfect find because at Laboratory5 Inc we love to bring together all elements of STEAM and tie them up into a package to promote the work each individual is doing in their fields to celebrate this work.  This image is from a school pocket folder bought it at Target in August 2009 and we scanned it for our viewers to look at on this blog.

A Periodic Text Message Table is the perfect collide between, Science, Art and Technology. We love this!

UPDATE: We have had so so many requests for this images in a larger version that we’ve updated this post as a PDF – until the owner of the design comes along and asks us to remove it as it is not our design and we do not have the right to distribute this image. TThanks!
