Robolink, a start-up in Sorrento Valley, is encouraging students to learn about programming with robotics kits that are cute, fun, and packed with real tech. After buying a kit, students can either learn through online lessons at robolink.com or come to our Sorrento Valley or 4S Ranch center to learn how to program their robot. We would like to showcase our products and student work at our booth. Students will be on hand to interact with festival attendees, and we can also demo our robots.

The UC San Diego Biomedical Engineering Society strives to promote early STEM engagement for students by introducing the exciting field of biomedical engineering. With activities and demonstrations, UCSD BMES seeks to provide hands-on experiences that teach kids about biology, engineering, and medicine. Kids will enjoy the interactive experience, while at the same time learning how these three fields of science play an integral role in our society under the broader field of bio-medicine.

As part of our commitment to education, the National Marine Mammal Foundation participates in outreach efforts at local San Diego schools and public events. By educating children and the community about our exciting marine mammal discoveries, we hope to inspire future generations for years to come. Science education is incredibly important, and we hope to do our part by exposing students to the unique and rewarding work that we do with the animals.

Our booth will contain preserved marine invertebrates and fish and we will use these to explain how the City uses marine life to monitor the health of the offshore environment. We will also have some of our water quality oceanographic equipment on display, as well as underwater survey videos showing various forms of fish and invertebrates encountered near the sewage outfall pipe as well out in the open water.
