| National Science Experiment |
Baton Rouge, La - On behalf
of the Southern University Agricultural Research and Extension Center, you are
invited to join us on October 10, 2012
for 4‑H National Youth
Science Day, during which we will conduct the National Science Experiment,
the 4-H Eco-Bot Challenge. This
national event, designed to engage hundreds of thousands of American youth in a
single science experiment, will demonstrate that by utilizing engineering
principles, youth can have a positive impact on communities and ecosystems. The “Southern
Lab School 6th Grade Bot-Sperts” are ready for the challenge!
The Southern University Agricultural Research and Extension Center will
host the “Southern Lab School 6th
Grade Bot-Sperts,” for the 4-H
Eco-Bot Challenge on Wednesday October
10, 2012 from 9:00 am-12:00 pm, Room 191, 1st floor, A. O. Williams
Hall.
Your attendance in this event
will encourage the children in our community to take an interest in science
education, and develop a passion for important issues facing our nation today.
During 4-H National Youth Science Day, youth in 4-H clubs, after-school
programs, camps and affiliated organizations across the country will enhance
their engineering skills by assembling their own Eco-Bots and surface controls
to manage an environmental clean-up. Youth will then test the interaction
between the Eco-Bot’s design features and various surface control
configurations to determine the most effective clean-up solution for the simulated
spill.
