16. Brady Middle School, Orange City Schools Student Feedback "Right off the bat, the CSA Group was kind not only in allowing us to come, but also in their lengths of generosity they showed us. Not to mention that the people involved with the tour set aside work for that day to show us what they did. That alone was wonderful!" Student _ _ "My favorite part was seeing the workers do actual real life experiments. I liked that because it gives us an example of what they do." Student _ _ For ASM International Cleveland Chapter - David Brown & Ivan Locci 16

17. Brady Middle School, Orange City Schools Student Feedback "My favorite part was the wind room. I liked it the best because it was a really cool experience that we participated in rather than watching someone do it." Student _ _ “…I especially found value in the laser scanner lab, the high force lab, the corrosion chambers, and in the rain room. These tour "stations" helped me to learn more about materials science and engineering while being very fun!..." Student _ _ For ASM International Cleveland Chapter - David Brown & Ivan Locci 17

I liked that because it gives us an example of what they do…" Student _ _ "My favorite part of the tour was the corrosion lab because we learn about corrosion in school, so it was a way to connect school to the real world."

19. Brady Middle School, Orange City Schools Student Feedback “…Talking with the workers at lunch was interesting. I learned a lot about pursuing a scientific career. My favorite part of the tour was the high force lab because the trial and error aspect seemed interesting…" Student _ _ "I loved the lunch and the shirts, flash drives, and pen. Thanks CSA!" Student _ _ For ASM International Cleveland Chapter - David Brown & Ivan Locci 19

20. Student Feedback Summary The students enjoyed the tour and found the testing of everyday products very interesting. Most did not know that testing of this sort goes on before products are sent to retail stores. Everyone loved the lunch! The jaw breaker, wind tunnel, corrosion tests were singled out by most students as being significant. Naturally there were a number of positive comments on the gifts. ASM Cleveland says THANK YOU, CSA GROUP CSA’s response: We are looking forward to the next bigger and better tour!…please pass along CSA’s gratitude at considering us for these learning experiences and community involvement. 20 For ASM International, Cleveland Chapter - David Brown & Ivan Locci
