The students from "Beyond Bits and Atoms" (EDUC 236X / CS402) will be presenting their incredible final projects to the Stanford community. Food will be served! The expo will take place in the CERAS lobby.
Students will be showing several different technology-enhanced learning environments and toolkits, in fields such as physics, music, storytelling skills, engineering, conflict resolution, math, and more. Below is a summary of the projects.
You're welcome to bring family and friends!
Hope to see you on Thursday! Paulo Blikstein and the BB&A team
