Description:
A priority for the University of Iowa's Student Chapter is to conduct outreach events for our local community, the primary event being a Kid's Day Camp. The purpose of this camp is to expose children(K-5) to chemical engineering by conducting a variety of experiments and activities that incorporate a variety of principals within engineering. For this workshop, our chapter will discuss the planning process involved with a successful day camps. This portion of the event will provide tips on selecting themes, choosing experiments, and deciding on a date and time. Not only that, but we'll discuss certain obstacles that we have encountered in the past and how we have surpassed them. These obstacles include; accounting for K-5 policies within our specific university, budgeting, and advertising. The primary goal of this workshop is to provide tools that every chapter can utilize to plan a successful Kid's Day Camp.
