Innovation in the 'Burg Podcast: Bringing STEAM to life for students

Welcome to Innovation in the 'Burg, a podcast all about science and innovation in St. Petersburg. This week, host Alison Barlow, executive director of the St. Pete Innovation District, brings two professors from St. Petersburg College and University of South Florida, St. Petersburg together to talk innovations in STEM education.

Professors Chad Mairn and Dr. David Rosengrant wax poetic on how technologies like 3D printing, virtual reality and augmented reality are helping students learn math, physics, and biology in new ways. They share thoughts on the future of STEM (hint: It's a lot like Magic School Bus!) and the most influential minds in science and technology.
