Come join us in the conference playground and experience hands-on activities using STEM-inspired technology, among other things. The Playground is not a typical session you attend, but rather a time for you to investigate, explore, and play firsthand with different "toys". Visit with the technology trainers from Utah’s Regional Service Centers, UEN, UofU, and the STEM Action Center. Come and go as you'd like, or spend an hour (or two) in the Playground!
