One of our good friends and past team members, Mikie Smit (Founder of WorldServe) came along with us. He had a great time interacting with the 12th graders. Here are some of his thoughts:
"Last Friday, I attended the Open Source Construction guest lecture series at Perspectives Charter Schools. Not only did I get to attend, but I also had the opportunity to teach a small group about OSC. Basically, I facilitated while the students worked on solving real world problems. Besides being a lot of fun working with the high schoolers, it was awesome to watch them connect with a world bigger than themselves. We wanted to show them that they can make a difference, and that their ideas could impact people in need."
Here are some photos from the workshop as well:
