This webinar was co-hosted by Chelle Myrann, one of our master teachers and the Physics, Robotics, and Engineering teacher at Cesar Chavez High School, Arizona. In 2010, Chelle led the InvenTeam of Cesar Chavez High School and invented a physical therapy chair to reduce muscular atrophy. Chelle's team presented at the inaugural White House Science Fair. Their invention was awarded U.S. patent 8,845,560 in 2014.

Chelle talked about how she and her students engaged the whole community during the invention project.
