Additional information
Susam Oseterhaus shared the following information about this exciting conference:
“Sara Larkin and I have been co-chairs of the biennial POSB STEM (previously
just Math and Science) Institute for Instruction since 2011. For any of
our STEM teachers with blind students and TSVIs who need to know more about
supporting our students in STEM, this is a must attend event that only
happens every two years.
We do our best with no budget to make this the most affordable conference
for all attendees, presenters, and vendors. I think we have outdone
ourselves this year. CATT – NW is our big time sponsor for the venue, and
the CSB was able to get us the terrific hotel price which includes
breakfast!!”
