Is Indiana Jones a typical archaeologist? Come and find out! Go behind-the-scenes to take part in a hands-on archaeological dig in our new Kipper Family Archaeology Discovery Center, where you'll meet Oriental Institute archaeologists and unearth amazing ancient-style artifacts. Then go on a scavenger hunt in the galleries to learn the secrets of some our most famous discoveries and see spectacular treasures brought to the Oriental Institute by James Henry Breasted, the Institute's founder, whose adventures rival Indy's own.

Fee includes the program, all materials, and an archaeology experiment to take home. Space is limited and pre-registration is required. Suggested for children ages 8 and up, accompanied by an adult.

The University of Chicago hosts a special seminar with Jeanne Narum, founding director of Project Kaleidoscope, one of the leading advocates in the United States for what works in building and sustaining strong undergraduate programs in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).

PKAL is an informal alliance taking responsibility for shaping undergraduate STEM learning environments that attract undergraduate students to STEM fields, inspiring them to persist and succeed by giving them personal experience with the joy of discovery and an awareness of the influence of science and technology in their world. Such efforts are a collective response to recent urgent calls to action that address their visions of a nation of learners and a nation of innovators.

If there's enough snow, we'll strap on snowshoes and explore Spring Valley from a different perspective-off the trail. If there's no snow, we'll explore anyway! The hike will be followed with a story and hot chocolate. Activities are designed for families with children age 5-12. Fee is per family, so you only need to register one child of the appropriate age.

Design your own maze game using Game Maker software. You will learn how to design levels, treasures, traps and more. Start with the basics and then learn to personalize your own game. For students in grades 6-10.

As we near the end of the 21st century's first decade, it has become painfully clear that the current forms of energy storage currently in use are obsolete and inadequate. With the world's demand for energy growing ever steadily, the need for innovative, economical, and environmentally sound ways of storing and distributing power is at the forefront of today's energy research.

Join C²ST and a panel of experts as they discuss state-of-the-art solar, battery, and Smart Grid technologies that might one day redefine our understanding of energy use and storage.

Speakers:
Dr. Mohammad Shahidehpour, Bodine Distinguished Professor and Chair, Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, Illinois Institute of Technology

Dr. Michael R. Wasielewski, Director, Argonne-Northwestern Solar Energy Research Center

Jeff Chamberlain, Senior Account Manager, Office of Technology Transfer, Argonne National Laboratory
