About the QOISC and Donn Silberman

The OISC was founded in 2003 by Donn Silberman to partner with others, particularly members of the OSSC, and is dedicated to the promotion of math, science, and engineering education through the use of optics and related technologies and phenomena.  Our educational approach is hands-on, student-centered, and engaging.  We seek to foster the curious scientist, the artful mathematician, and the creative engineer in every student, regardless of age.

There are more details about the history of the OISC at:  About Us (oisc.net)
