The oranges, blues, and greens of the Region 10 ESC logo show up a lot in this building, from floors to chairs to posters - but why were these colors chosen? How do designers use a color scheme to create an intentional effect? How is a color wheel a type of math or scientific model? And how do distances from each other on color wheels help in design?...

The positioning of the windows in the Region 10 ESC lobby makes the light bounce back and forth a bunch when viewed from the correct angle! But why is it that the reflections seem to be fading away into the distance? And how are we still able to see through to the outside as well?... CONTINUE READING
Why do so many trees get thinner and thinner the higher up you go? Let's apply some math to the situation and figure it out!... CONTINUE READING
Computer analysis and robotics has advanced quite a bit in recent years! But how do computers actually "think?" And how different is that from what we do? Here are supplementary student activity sheets for all educators to use. Learn more about Computational Thinking using exp... CONTINUE READING
