In 1965, 49 years ago, Gordon Moore
of Intel famously proclaimed that
silicon density, the number of
transistors on computer chips, would
double approximately every two
years.
In effect, “Moore’s Law” is the
platform upon which U.S. and global
wealth creation has been built since
the Apollo program.
A new technology wave has emerged
that is changing everything we
know, or think we know about
business and technology in the world
driven by the intersection of
[operational technology and
cyberspace].

Robotic Red Blood
Cells To Vastly
Expand Human
Capabilities
By: David Russell Schilling | July 20th, 2013
Abbott Laboratories in North
Chicago is currently testing
robotic red blood cells or
respirocytes in rats. According to
a CNN report respirocytes or
mechanical red blood cells will
augment or replace human red
blood cells carrying oxygen to the
body and enhancing mental and
physical performance.
Respirocytes will be built using
“molecular assemblers”, a kind of
molecular printing process, in
nano-factories.

April 15, 2015 – The purpose of the Texas Cybersecurity Institute is to: (1)
enable cyber physical systems security and cooperative incident
management services for information sharing, collaboration, and
coordination in multi-sector environments; (2) promote public-private
partnerships for policy and programs related to the development of
human and intellectual capital for education, workforce, economic
development systems relevant to cyber physical systems; (3) create
collaborative multi-stakeholder laboratories and research, development,
and commercialization initiatives to promote public welfare and the
security of critical infrastructure systems and processes; and (4) design
necessary approaches to science, technology and public policy that effect
public safety and cybersecurity critical infrastructure as a service.

What is STEM? Why is STEM important?

What is STEM in the context of P-20 Education Practice?
STEM is transformation by design. STEM is transformation of social, human, and
environmental systems by human design and the unintended consequences of human design
choices.
STEM is a technological force changing society and social institutions. STEM is changing the
structure, flow, and composition of social institutions and personal identity: family,
education, work, economy, law, government, etc. From an identity perspective technology
and more broadly STEM effects our worldview, our concepts of: self-efficacy, subjectivity,
objectivity, privacy, time, space (place), geography, cosmology, individuality, identity, values,
beliefs and culture.
STEM is a process of collaboration connecting institutional silos (education, government,
industry, and civil society) to satisfy community and global needs. STEM is confronting the
local challenges in your community and school through the process of inquiry, design, and
innovation. STEM is turning a community inward on itself to form learning communities and
laboratories designed to effect local and global opportunities and challenges through
collaboration and cooperation.
STEM is a moral imperative to prepare all students for their future, rather than our past.
STEM educational practices, ideally, today open access and opportunity in education through
a balanced approach to learning that retains the important fundamentals of classical
education while integrating contemporary knowledge, processes, and tools.
