Kate the Chemist fires up the crowd at TEDxDetroit about science, STEM education, evidence-based conversations and inspiring the next generation of women scientists. At the University of Texas, Dr. Kate Biberdorf is breaking stereotypes and blowing stuff up-all in a good pair of heels. Through her theatrical and hands-on approach to teaching, Dr. Biberdorf is breaking down the image of the stereotypical scientist, while reaching students that might otherwise be intimidated by science. Students’ emotional responses, rather than rote memorization of facts, is key to Biberdorf ’s dynamic approach to her program, as well as science in general. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
