2. INTRODUCTION

Next is the Report about all the activities that SPIE student chapter at the INAOE have performed between

May 2009 and May 2010. All these scientific and cultural activities has been performed with such

enthusiasm about knowing that a lot of persons can have access to scientific talks and, why not, get

interested on Physics or Optics sciences for living.

We steal having a great time in our Student Chapter, full of activities both academic and social. This has

created a very enthusiastic atmosphere among the Chapter members. At these times we are 25 members but

we hope to increase the number of members at the present year.

November 27 -28, 2009, Attendants: 700

During the 3rd Cinvesniñ@s, our SPIE Student Chapter participated at National Polytechnic Institute

with a Workshop: Kaleidoscope, Periscope and astronomical kit.

In fact, the national week of sciences and technology is celebrated in Mexico every year. In this two

days every institute of science of technology they should participate with activities to promote the science in

our country. Our chapter was invited to participate with workshop optics in order to show the importance of

science and optics in our lives. Thus, during two days two of us were sharing and enjoying the science and

technology with children, teenagers and old people.

Universidad Popular Autonoma del Estado de Puebla (UPAEP)

Segunda Feria de Ciencias

December 10, 2009. Attendants: 270

We presented a talk about general optics and Optics experiments.

Daniel Lopez is talking about the principles of fiber Optics and lasers. And Juan Carlos Juarez is talking to the children about

lenses and image formation.

4th International Reading Fair (FILEC)

3D Images workshop and Optics experiments.

February 11 - 14, 2010. Attendants: 3500

Part of our work as a Student Chapter consists of developing techniques to explain and understand

the optics science in order to motivate to others. One way to do this is by building little and easy to

understand instruments with low cost materials, such as telescopes, microscopes or periscopes. We are sure

that this represents an attractive way to teach and understand the optics.

This event was very important in the state of Puebla. These way almost 20,000 children of different schools

were invited to participate in these activities. Although there were almost 130 different activities and

workshops, it was necessary to participate with 3D images workshop and Optics experiments.

The experiments were related to: index of refraction, electromagnetic fields, waves, lasers, holograms,

diffraction, polarization, dispersion and interference. The main idea of these experiments was to promote our

activities as optics students, as well as SPIE Student Chapter. Children of different schools were able to

listen our explanations and enjoy with the experiments.

The success of both workshops was evident with the building of approximately 1000 lens for 3D images

workshop. This was possible not only with the participation of each member of our Student Chapter, but

also with the collaboration of invited friends and parents who were working together for four days from 9

a.m. to 6 p.m. What a experience!. This is an example of how we can improve the teaching and learning of

optics science for children. In fact, with this kind of workshops we have motivated to others, including old

people, so that they can research a little bit more about the applications of optics. We would like to increase

the number of workshops with the brilliant ideas of our members.

Centro escolar “José María Morelos y Pavón”.

Semana de la ciencia y sus aplicaciones

February 15 – 19, 2010. Attendants: 1200

By First Time the INAOE Student Chapter of SPIE was the organizer, and the School Center “José

Maria Morelos y Pavon (CEM)” gave us that opportunity. It was a great experience for all members

involved. The name of this event was “Week of Science and application” and the INAOE Student Chapter of

SPIE was the contact for the speakers and the CEM. In this event we created the workshop of dark camera

for teenager and we attend around 1200 persons between kids and teenager. The Speakers were researchers

from INAOE and the University of Puebla, Mexico.

Javier is talking about dark camera.

The INAOE Student Chapter of SPIE was the organizer, and the school zone 014 “Cadete Vicente

Suarez”. In this event we realized Optics experiments were related to: index of refraction, electromagnetic

Kaleidoscope, Periscope, 3D Images and astronomical kit. We attend around 700 between 15 to 18 years

old.

Colegio Mexicano de Tehuacan

“3rd Week of Science and Technology”

May 11, 2010. Attendants: 300

One of the main activities of the student chapter is to go to other cities to divulge the optics;

we believe it is very important because not all schools have the chance to visit the laboratories of

INAOE. In the city Tehuacan, Puebla. The “College Mexicano” invited us to participate in their third

week of science and technology. On this occasion, participated in two conferences, the first was “Optics

in everyday life” and the second was “Optical and applications”. Also there were tables of experiments

as it is, holography, diffraction, polarization, imaging, wave guides, and experiment Newton

BBQ to interact and increase number of member of the Chapter.


16

The internal conferences for external visitors there are listed in this table.


17

Participation in Congresses.

Optics + Photonics Meeting in San Diego.

4. DETAILS OF PLANNED ACTIVITIES FOR THE FUTURE.

1. Increase the numbers of workshops. We already have the kaleidoscope, periscope, photography,

3D Images and camera obscure workshops.

2. Give informal talks about optics and also tours to the optics labs for students from kindergarden

to undergraduate.


18

3. Participation in SPIE conferences.

4. Participation with talks, workshops and visits labs in the Sciences workshop for teenagers and

Sciences workshop for teachers, in Tonantzintla, Puebla on August 2010.

5. Participation with a workshop in the 5th

International Book Fair (5th

Feria Internacional del

Libro), in Tonantzintla, Puebla on February 2011.

6. Continue with the magazine to promote Science; this project was supported by SPIE and OSA.

The name of the magazine is “Light Hunters” and the committee is: Juan Carlos Juarez Morales,

Benito Canales Pacheco and Aramis A. Sanchez.

7. Finalizing develop of the Optical kits.

8. Continue with the cultural film projections.
