In 80 classrooms across Ontario, in museums, and at the University of Windsor, our volunteers are sharing their love of STEM subjects with students of all ages and backgrounds. Over 250 children (and a number of keen adults!) crowded around our EIRs at the Canada Science and Technology Museum in Ottawa on Saturday. Some tried their hand at flying around the Toronto harbour, while others tested their structural building capacities against a mighty earthquake generator. Over 60 children participated in two fantastic activities led by EIRs Saturday November 26th at THEMUSEUM in Kitchener. John Wynen demonstrated the principles of creating electrical currents using magnets. Over 100 new volunteers have applied to be EIRs or members of the EIR network in response to an email blast to PEO members last August. Almost 50 volunteer engineers and teachers attended an orientation session in Toronto on October 5th. Follow the EIR Program on Twitter @eirprogram . .
