mem·o·ry·less·ness

Madame Curious recently visited my friend Kailas Narendran.  She helped him in his work building robots for Xitome Design.

I mentioned previously that Madame Curious was coming to visit me as part of a National Lab Day project.  She is traveling the country to learn about what scientists, engineers, and others with technical backgrounds do so she can teach it to the fifth grade science classes at Harold S. Winograd K8 School in Greeley, Colorado.  I taught her about my job as an Operations Research Analyst when she was here for the second half of October.  Madame Curious wrote about her visit.

Madame Curious is coming to visit me.

Madame Curious is the creation of the students in fifth grade at Harold S. Winograd K8 School in Greeley, Colorado. She is our way of bringing scientists and science research back to our classroom. We are interested in all kinds of science and want to know what you are creating, researching, and learning. Since we can’t take field trips to science labs, we want Madame Curious to bring them to us through this wikispace. If you are interested in having Madame Curious visit your science lab or field study, she would love to come.

Fifth grade science teacher (and Mme Curious’s friend) Ms. Sage contacted me through National Lab Day to arrange the visit.  (Here’s the NLD Project Page.)  Mme Curious has already visited several scientists around the country, where she’s participated in some hands-on experiments.  It should be interesting for the students to see the variety of jobs held by people with science/engineering/math backgrounds.
