Echo's and Alliances

Acadia University

What if we could communicate with each person on the planet in the manner they wanted to experience the message. Could we create teams and that worked so well together there was nothing they couldn’t accomplish. In this workshop you will discover the hidden code of your own personality, and those around you, so you can begin to understand, adapt, connect and build high performance networks.

Planes, Trains, and TI?

Texas Instruments

In this hands-on session you will experience Python coding with TI technology to drive robotic cars, fly drones and control Micro:bits. No coding experience required!

Waves of Change - Bystander Intervention

Saint Mary’s University

The Waves of Change program is a Nova Scotia resource made to increase safety and respect on campus and beyond. The goal of the program is to teach participants to recognize disrespectful behaviour and to use various techniques to interrupt or stop harassment, support those who are impacted, and transform the culture that allows harm to happen. This program draws on participants’ existing skills, knowledge, and creativity to facilitate broader strategies for social change.
