At the annual Harvard-Westlake STEM-Fest, students walked across a pool of non-Newtonian fluidand posed with STEM Claus at the Beyond the Test-Fest. The display of science, technology, engineering and mathematics class projects ran for the past three years as STEM Fest. However, the student producers rebranded it to reflect its expansion to cover disciplines outside STEM fields. Studies in Scientific Research students displayed projects in Munger Science Center, showcasing the experiments they designed and performed throughout the year while Advanced Topics in Computer Science presented video games and mobile apps like Julie Ko's 12 Ladder Climbing Game app for Android,. Under the direction of chemistry teacher Krista McClain, students wearing capes and wizard hats poured liquid nitrogen on milk, sugar and vanilla to make ice cream. The Robotics Club controlled a gleaming metal robot that shot baskets and balanced on a wobbling platform as students cheered. Art and Theatre students created a Dip Your Hand communal art project where students could draw, paint or handprint a giant tarp, reflecting the school's motto, Make Your Mark. This event differed from usual STEMfest because it features work done beyond the classroom and outside of traditional academics. The producers decided to stage it in a fun atmoshere with arts activities. In the Ahmanson Lecture Hall, students watched the Math and Technology Film Festival, comprising student films about the STEM subjects. Films included Molly Cinnamon's film, This is Laura, which won second place in a National Center for Women in Technology contest for movies about the future of technology. It was great that other students had the chance to see my film and blow off steam while still learning about science, Cinnamon said.
