PA’s K-12 Creative Problem-Solving STEAM Program


Podcast: OM HQ’s Sammy Micklus

Odyssey of the Mind HQ’s international director, Sammy Micklus, recounts the origins of what was then Olympics of the Mind – when his father and founder of the program Dr. Sam recruited him to volunteer. Sammy goes on to tell the tales – or tails, as OMER might say – of the program’s milestones and memorable solutions, including a look at what goes into writing problems, scoring guidelines, and clarifications.
