The Ascent of Mary Somerville in 19th Century Society, by Elisabetta Strickland

The Ascent of Mary Somerville in 19th Century Society, by Elisabetta Strickland

29/01/2017 - Lectures, Books

This biography traces the life and work of Mary Fairfax Somerville, whose extraordinary mathematical talent only came to light through fortuitous circumstances. Barely taught to read and write as a child, all the science she learned and mastered was self taught. In this delightful narrative the author takes up the challenge of discovering how Somerville came to be one of the most outstanding British women scientists and, furthermore, a popular writer. Particular attention is paid to the gender aspects of Somerville's success in what was, to put it mildly, a predominantly male domain. Read more

19 - 27 of November 2016: 6th edition of European Robotics Week

17/11/2016 - News, Projects

Why Robots? Simply because Robots occupy the minds of everyone. Tens of thousands of school children in Europe, who may have no interest in technical subjects, change their mind as a result of these essential interactions. The interaction with robots complements the overall teaching experience and helps to motivate young people of any age to learn not only the basics of STEM, but also to direct them on to an independent exploratory, self-motivated learning path.

American Academy of Pediatrics has lifted its recommendation discouraging all electronic media use in children under the age of 2.

American Academy of Pediatrics has lifted its recommendation discouraging all electronic media use in children under the age of 2.

05/11/2016 - Publications, Press Club

In a marked shift from recommendations first adopted in 1999, the American Academy of Pediatrics has lifted its recommendation discouraging all electronic media use in children under the age of 2. The new recommendations for children's media use acknowledge that some media exposure can have educational value for children as young as 18 months, but it should be high-quality programming—the AAP specifically referenced "Sesame Street," and children's programming provided by PBS.
