Through CCMR, I have been working with elementary school children from around the Ithaca area in after school programs. In demoing experiments such as how to make liquid nitrogen ice cream and catapults, we have been teaching the basics of mechanics and material science. I have also volunteered at the Ithaca Sciencenter to run interactive programming with children to understand high mathematical concepts (such as topology). More to come.
