The STEMAZing Project Goes International!
Director and local educator travel to Honduras to teach STEM

Tucson, AZ – The STEMAZing Project Director, DaNel Hogan, and local preschool teacher Carmen Barnes will be returning to Honduras for the second year to provide three full-day STEMAZing workshops to over 90 educators. They leave for Honduras on August 18 and the work is being fully funded by the U.S. Embassy. The STEMAZing Project is a Pima County School Superintendent’s Office program.

The workshops will focus on the “REAL primary colors, which are NOT red, yellow, and blue” and will be maintaining their model of giving away loot. The teachers attending this year’s workshops will be getting primary color paints, supplies for primary color light show paper circuits, a picture book called Ish by Peter Brown and so much more! The workshops will take place at the Chiminike Museo (http://www.chiminike.org/) in Tegucigalpa.

DaNel Hogan and Carmen Barnes are available for interviews before and after their trip. To coordinate an interview please contact Matt Stamp at matthew.stamp@schools.pima.gov or
