SUMMARY:Migration Obstacles & Bird Collision Corps
DESCRIPTION:Migration season is upon us! We will be learning about migration obstacles through an interactive educational activity/obstacle course that teaches students about physical challenges and environmental hazards that migratory birds face on their journey. \nAdditionally\, we will be focusing in on Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance’s (SWBA) “Bird Collision Corps” Citizen Science opportunity\, hoping to participate in the spring. From SWBA’s website: “Bird-window collisions kill over 1 BILLION birds every single year in the United States. That shocking number can be drastically reduced when communities work together to ensure windows that are most problematic for birds are treated to prevent collisions. Typically\, the first step in making change in your community is to collect data on when\, where\, and to what extent the problem is happening. That’s where the Bird Collision Corps (BCC) program comes in.” \nBoth events are in collaboration with SWBA’s education program. \nThis event is just for students at Lincoln Elementary; this event is not open to the general public.

SUMMARY:PRE-FESTIVAL EVENT: Sci-prov: The Workshops - Listening & Empathy
DESCRIPTION:FREE WORKSHOP! Better science communication through improv. This workshop will focus on listening and empathy and is designed for graduate students\, post-docs\, staff\, and faculty in STEM-related fields. \n\n\n\nWorkshop Topic: Listening + Empathy \nThis workshop focuses on absorbing information from colleagues and listening for understanding. Activities focus on listening to partners beyond words and distilling messages to core values and beliefs for building bridges with collaborators and the public. \nThis workshop will take place in room 1145 in the Discovery Building. \nSpace is limited – RSVP required! \n\n\n\nThese 2-hour workshops are designed for graduate students\, post-docs\, staff\, and faculty in STEM related fields who want to sharpen their ability to communicate effectively and adaptively. In research and industry alike\, ideas often need to be shared in real time with diverse audiences- from colleagues and collaborators to decision-makers and the public. These sessions provide a lively\, low-stakes space to build confidence in handling the unexpected and the ability to pivot one’s communication. Through fun applied improv practice\, participants will experiment with spontaneous speaking\, respond to mistakes\, and network. Each workshop will focus one a different area of communication – attend one or all of the workshop sessions!

SUMMARY:PRE-FESTIVAL EVENT: International Top Spinning Day - Spin Tops Wherever You are in the World!
DESCRIPTION:SPIN TOPS TODAY & CELEBRATE INTERNATIONAL TOP SPINNING DAY because the EARTH IS A TOP! It’s a free WORLD-wide event: in school\, at home\, at work (on break): WHEREVER you are this day. \nWHY? To recognize & celebrate the scientific fact that the Earth is a Spinning Top + it’s a combo of fun & learning: science\, math\, fine motor skills\, organization\, challenges\, observations skills. Every culture around the world spins tops. \nHOW TO TAKE PART: Each time you start a top spinning\, it counts as a spin!\nSet up lots of tops for everyone to spin. Small trays\, lunch trays or paper plates work for a place to spin. Keep track of the number of each start of a spinning top. Then email us the total spins of your group\, your city\, how many participants\, ages\, comments\, and photos\, too\, please: thetopmuseum@hotmail.com \nOFFICIAL! This activity has been recommended by the National Science Foundation discussed on National Public Radio\, written about in Family Fun Magazine! It even appeared on TV in Kansas! Kids in Romania\, professors in Poland\, Families in Wisconsin\, people in South Africa\, New Zealand and many other places have taken part in past years. Visit our website for more places. \n–This event was founded by the Top Museum director 26 years ago in Wisconsin!\nThere will be free top spinning in front of the Top Museum from noon-6pm this day\, but spinning counts for the entire 24 hours of Oct.14\, wherever you are in the world today! \nCheck out more events at the Spinning Top & Yo-Yo Museum and the Logic Puzzle Museum!
