Through interactive demonstrations, hands-on activities and engaging speakers, the festival shows students of all backgrounds that they have the potential to become tomorrow’s leading innovators.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(68, 63, 60); font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; ">“The technology and science that Life Technologies is focused on requires a very innovative and curious mind,” said Katie Carlstrom, science education manager at the San Diego-based biotech and a graduate of UC San Diego. “That, combined with the scholastics of science, is how we continue to come up with new breakthroughs in the scientific community. It is important to foster that curiosity outside of the school environment. This is what drives Life Technologies to become a partner in events that further education like the San Diego Festival of Science &amp; Engineering.”</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(68, 63, 60); font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; ">Now in its fourth year, the weeklong community celebration of science and engineering features nearly 40 events across the county, culminating in the all-day finale event, EXPO DAY, which will include 140 organizations presenting hands-on activities, 50 “Ask Me” scientists and engineers that students will be able to interview, plus 16 stage performances ranging from Sid the Science Kid to the DNA Dragon to Space School Musical. Many of the presentations and information booths will feature Spanish speakers.

Rodecker’s interest in science stems from his early experience in nature. “As a young person, I spent many summers on a farm in Missouri, where you can’t help but interact with nature. Studying insects on the farm was my great early interest in science.”</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(68, 63, 60); font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; ">Today, Rodecker tries to connect his students with nature to help them understand that science is everywhere. Rodecker runs a weekly science club—ZU2U Club (Zoo to You)—that brings in live animals and experts provided by a local exotic pet store, South Bay Tropicals. After the animal presentations are over, each student picks one in which they would like to become an expert. At the Festival EXPO DAY, students offer a biology-focused presentation of their animal to an audience. “The festival provides a concrete goal for students in the club, which promotes science engagement year-round,” adds Rodecker.</p><div class="left large" style="float: left; margin-top: 6px; margin-right: 3.225806474685669%; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: -6.451612949371338%; width: 350px; "><img alt="festival" src="http://ucsdnews.ucsd.edu/news_uploads/sciencefestkid.jpg" style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; vertical-align: middle; max-width: 100%; "></div><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(68, 63, 60); font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; ">A key to the success of the festival is the comprehensive resources that have been developed for teachers (<a href="http://sdsciencefestival.com/k-12/teachers-resources.html" style="color: rgb(1, 102, 145); text-decoration: none; -webkit-transition-property: color; -webkit-transition-duration: 0.15s; -webkit-transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; -webkit-transition-delay: initial; ">http://sdsciencefestival.com/k-12/teachers-resources.html</a>). And to ensure that students in the region have access to events planned March 17 to 24, including EXPO DAY, free transportation is being provided for organized field trips by a teacher, school liaison or program liaison; on a first-come first-serve basis, as long as funds are available (<a href="http://www.sdsciencefestival.com/k-12/transportation.html" style="color: rgb(1, 102, 145); text-decoration: none; -webkit-transition-property: color; -webkit-transition-duration: 0.15s; -webkit-transition-timing-function: ease-in-out; -webkit-transition-delay: initial; ">http://www.sdsciencefestival.com/k-12/transportation.html</a>). This opportunity is open to all San Diego County schools, as well as education and community outreach programs. In addition, in partnership with MTS, low fare ticket prices of MTS Classroom Day Trip Passes are available to attend festival events—a great opportunity to help the festival go green and an affordable way for more people to go to the events. Transportation for the 2012 festival is being funded by Cal-SOAP, Arts Bus Xpress and the San Diego Festival of Science &amp; Engineering.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(68, 63, 60); font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; ">The 2012 San Diego Festival of Science &amp; Engineering marks the last year of support from the National Science Foundation—the three-year grant funded seed money to establish and grow the regional San Diego festival, as well as create an alliance to start other festivals throughout the U.S. This year’s sponsors include Life Technologies Foundation, ABC 10/Azteca San Diego 15, San Diego Padres, Time Warner Cable, Cox Media, General Dynamics Information Technology, Gen-Probe Incorporated, Nokia Inc., Qualcomm and U-T San Diego, among other generous supporters.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 12px; margin-left: 0px; color: rgb(68, 63, 60); font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; ">Private support from the community will be critical to ensure that the San Diego Festival of Science &amp; Engineering remains a free celebration to engage kids in science and engineering, as well as a lasting tradition for the San Diego community.

                        <description><![CDATA[<div class="xe_content"><P>산디에고 재미한국과학자 여러분,</P>
<P><BR />안녕하십니까? </P>
<P><BR />흑룡해를 맞아 모든 분들에게 계획하신 모든 일들이 이루어지시도록&nbsp; 건승을 기원합니다. </P>
<P><BR />다름이 아니라, 여러분들께&nbsp; INKE (세계 한인 벤처네트워크, International Network of Korean Entrepreneurs)를 소개드리고, 산디에고 INKE 지부의 초기 멤버로서 초청하고자 합니다.</P>
<P>INKE를 소개하는 자료를 첨부드립니다. </P>
<P>새로운 지부로 설립되기 위해서는 최소 10명의 자영업/중소기업이 필요합니다.<BR />굳이 한국분이 소유하는 중소기업이 아니어도 되니, 하이테크 분야에 종사하시는 분들의 많은 참여를 바랍니다. </P>
<P><BR />지부의 창립 목적 및 운영 계획은 다음과 같습니다. <BR />참여를 원하시는 분은 <A href="mailto:boryu@ieee.org">boryu@ieee.org</A> 나 858-805-5608로 연락주십시요. <BR /><BR />감사합니다.</P>
<P>류봉균 드림 (EpiSys Research, Inc).</P>
<P><BR />=========================</P>
<P><BR />산디에고는 미국에서 여섯번째로 큰 도시로서, 미군 해군 기지가 위치하고 있고, 이동통신과 바이오테크 벤처 회사들이 운집해 있어 “남부의 실리콘 밸리”라고 불리기도 합니다. <BR />&nbsp; </P>
<P>산디에고에 진출한 한국 업체로는 삼성, LG, 현대, 한진 등의 대기업을 비롯하여 많은 회사들이 현지법인을 두고 상시로 주재원들을 보내거나 현지에서 인력을 채용하고 있습니다. 멕시코와 국경 도시라 멕시코에 진출한 기업들의 주재원이나 인력들이 많이 모여사는 곳입니다. LA에서 남쪽으로 약 2시간 정도 떨어져 있습니다.중소업체 및 개인사업자의 경우 물류업, 무역업, 요식업, 여행업, 컨설팅 등 다양하나 LA 대비 숫자면에서는 월등히 낮은 편입니다. <BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp; 하이테크 분야로의 중소업체 및 개인사업자 진출은 드문 편으로서 관광지로서의 높은 부동산 비용 / 유지비용, 그리고 중소업체나 개인사업보다는 미국 대기업을 비교적 선호하는 이민 1.5/2세들의 문화등이 원인이라 할 수 있습니다.<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp; 인근의 LA&nbsp; 대비 진출 한국인 수의 부족으로 지부 운영의 활성화가 처음에는 어려움이 있을 것으로는 판단되나, 산디에고가 미국의 하이 테크 벤처 산업에서 차지하는 비중을 감안할 때 (특히 이동통신, 바이오테크, 그리고 친환경 분야들), 지역적인 잠재성은 상당히 크다고 판단되며, 이에 따라 향후 한국 중소기업들과의 경제활동이 활성화되면, 진출 기업인 수도 증가하여, 많은 교류가 있을 것으로 판단됩니다. 현재 산디에고의 한인회 활동도 비교적 활발하기 때문에, 저희 산디에고 지부는 하이테크 분야에 종사하는 현지 (한인) 중소기업인들을 집중적으로 관리할 계획입니다. 따라서 현재 시점에서는 미미한 출발일 수 있으나, 향후 어느 지부보다도 더 중요하고 활발한 지부가 될 것이라 확신합니다.<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>&nbsp;현재 시급한 과제인 회원 정족수 확보를 위한 방안은 아래와 같습니다.<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>1. 산디에고에 기반을 두고 하이테크 분야로 사업을 하시는 한인들과의 교류<BR />&nbsp;- 중소업체 및 개인사업자들과 지속적으로 교류를 한다면 10인 이상의 정회원 추가 확보가 가능<BR />&nbsp;- 재미 한국과학자 협회의 산디에고 지부와 협력하여 INKE의 지속적인 홍보<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>2. 미국시장진출을 원하는 한국 중소기업들에 도움이 될 수 있는 미국 연방정부 및 주 정부 프로그램 소개 및 상담을 통한 새로운 기업 (현지법인) 설립<BR />&nbsp;- Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) program<BR />&nbsp;- Low-interest loans and incentives available from Small Business Administrator<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>3. 미국진출을 원하는 중소기업의 현지 법인 설립 및 현지 인력 고용에 대한 상담 </P>
<P>&nbsp; 지부 운영방안은 아래와 같습니다.<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>1. 산디에고 지역으로 하이 테크 분야로서 시장 진출을 원하는 한인들을 위한 정보제공처 역할<BR />&nbsp;- 회원들의 오랜 경험과 다양한 분야의 경험으로 실용적인 정보제공 가능<BR />&nbsp;- 미국 연방 정부와 주 정부의 다양한 중소기업지원 프로그램에 대한 안내 (특히 Small Business Innovative Research 프로그램 및 Small Business Administrator에서 관리하는 금융 프로그램)<BR />&nbsp;- 현지 법인 설립 및 운영 (현지 인력 고용, 법률 및 회계) 에 대한 상담 및 소개<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 산디에고 회원들이 역으로 한국 시장으로 진출을 원하는 경우, 미국의 기술 수출법과 관련 법규에 대한 상담.<BR />&nbsp;</P>
<P>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; INKE 회원들과 지속적 교류<BR />&nbsp;- INKE 회원들과의 다양한 의견교류를 통한 회원 활동</P></div>]]></description>
