Science Week Supporting Science Education
(SWSSE)

Each year Pittcon offers outreach and support programs for science education in the city that hosts its annual convention.  The outreach programs include teacher workshops, student workshops and a lecture/demonstration assembly.  The support programs also provide awards and grants to individuals and schools.

The Pittcon 2009 Science Week program is happy to announce that its lecture demo for high school students will be conducted by Lee Marek who will make one of his well known “Weird Science” presentations. Lee has gained nationwide attention through numerous appearances on the David Letterman show as well as a number of other venues. The program will feature science education presented in a manner guaranteed to attract and hold the attention of the attendees.
