| Wednesday’s Closing Session: Neil Pasricha |
| Three Steps To Being AWESOME |
 Sometimes the simplest things in life can bring us the most happiness. The cold side of the pillow, finding money in your coat pocket and snow days are only a few of the things Neil Pasricha thinks are awesome. He wants to share all of them with the world. Pasricha's blog 1000 Awesome Things is an award winning celebration of the little moments we often overlook, but can brighten our days and reads "like a snappy Jerry Seinfeld monologue by way of Maria Von Trapp" (The Vancouver Sun). What started as a hobby to try and help, Pasricha’s feel better about life is now an Internet phenomenon and has gathered nearly 25 million views. His goal is to post one awesome thing every weekday for 1000 consecutive weekdays over four years. 1000 Awesome Things and The Book of Awesome point out universal feelgood signposts that help us stay afloat in troubling times. Pasricha's uplifting lists serve not as fluffy distractions or placating gimmicks, but as reminders of why "life really is awesome after all" (The Guardian) and how we can enjoy it to its fullest by focusing on the things that fill us with joy. |

Did you know violent, destructive tornadoes are most common after sunset? Or that Storm Chasers use Lexan polymer as a bullet-proof protective bubble to guard against projectiles in a tornado? Mobile radar and probe-launching tornado cannons enable extensive research capabilities in the science of meteorology. Learn how the advancement of technology, such as GPS, cell phones and radar play a key role in meteorology education, as well as in the advancement of our understanding of tornadoes and the prediction of these potentially deadly storms. Ground-breaking scientific data that was collected on the record-breaking 2011 season, in particular, the April 27, 2011 Dixie Alley Outbreak will also be shared, along with a summary of how this data can and will be used to save lives.
There are places where the desires, talent and competence of children are nurtured, celebrated and respected. This presentation will take you on an expedition to some of the world’s best educational ideas. Each stop on the tour shares inspiration from learning contexts built upon young people’s remarkable capacity for intensity. These ideas provide a foundation for meeting the needs of each child, technology integration, increased teacher quality and the fuel for sustaining innovation. While viewed in isolation, these ideas might inspire incremental solutions to specific problems. Combined, they represent educational transformation.
