Our guest this week is Matt Hartman, the content manager for eCYBERMISSION. Sponsored by the Army and administered by NSTA, eCYBERMISSION is a web-based STEM competition for 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th grade teams tasked with proposing a solution to a real problem in their community.  Matt joins us to tell us about the competition and its alignment to the Next Generation Science Standards.  In addition, we even get a special opportunity to talk with parent coach Haruna Cofer and her students from team Quake Safe: the 2013-2014 6th Grade First-Place National Winners.
