Participating speakers will be placed in middle or high school classrooms and will interface with 1–2 classes. The kids will want to know about the scientists’ personal interest in science, the journey that led them to their career, and what they actually do in their job. Relating to students, making science accessible, and teaching kids that science-based careers are attainable are the key goals of the Nifty 150 program.

About the Nifty 150: Our goal is to bring the most inspiring science professionals into classrooms to reach over 150 middle and high school classrooms in San Diego -  from February to April, 2010. This program is a critical element of the San Diego Science Festival that brings a personalized face of science to our students and nurtures the STEM pipeline in San Diego.
