Skepticism about science stretches back centuries— and the rise of the internet & social media has only made matters worse. Wouldn’t it be fascinating if AI technology was the tool that turned the tide against misinformation? Our CEO, Frederic "Dr. B" Bertley, talks the recent research, conspiracy theories and how artificial intelligence could bring surprising solutions: https://lnkd.in/gUCUGEG7

This summer, COSI partnered with neighborhood-based summer camps to deliver our offsite STEAM experiences, Connects2You and Learning Lunchboxes, to students across the city! The students took a week-long journey to space by engineering a bottle rocket and learning all about the forces that propel its launch! Thanks to City of Columbus for the support that made this programming possible.

Social media's influence on science and health is growing, but declining scientific literacy undermines our progress and innovation. Let's talk about the impact of social media with our very own president & CEO, Frederic "Dr. B" Bertley, at SXSW— all we need is your vote! ?? https://lnkd.in/gYQVGJ7a

On July 8 and 9, 2024, students from Agastya International Foundation's intervention school attended the EiPIC India-2024 Workshop (Extracurricular Intellectual Property Innovation Center), which was organized by the Center of Science and Industry (COSI, Ohio, USA) in collaboration with the American Center (US Embassy, New Delhi). The two-day program introduced students to innovation and intellectual property rights (IPR) through presentations from COSI's Frederic "Dr. B" Bertley and Sara Leikin, as well as US IP Attorneys Kayla McCormick and Jessica Goebel. Students created a pitch deck for their concepts and participated in hands-on activities related to intellectual property rights (IPR), trademarks, and patents.

Hot take: We wouldn't buy Apex. Our district spends $9 million on instruction— only 20% percent of what this stegosaurus cost. We love dinosaurs but if we had $45 million, that's just not how we'd spend it. What do you think? Our CEO, Frederic "Dr. B" Bertley, said it best! ?? ?? ?? https://lnkd.in/g9s7EX6K @FredericBertley

We are grateful for the inspiring visit from Sara Leikin, Ed.D Senior Director at COSI - Center of Science and Industry Her insights on innovative education and hands-on learning were truly inspiring. We are thankful for her visit and eagerly anticipate a fruitful collaboration between Agastya and COSI to further our shared mission of transforming education for a better tomorrow.
