Disney YES programs take place in the information-rich setting of the Disney parks in Florida and California to give students a hands-on, educational adventure. The first day students attended the Energy and Waves Physics Lab where students saw first-hand how these elements are a vital part of creating world-class attractions and how Disney uses these physical properties to entertain and amaze guests from all over the world. The rode the famous Haunted House ride and were then allowed to go behind the scenes and see how Disney uses light refraction to create scenes. The second day students attended the Evolution of Technology program. Students explored rides in Future World at Epcot and learned about the ways that the wants and needs of society impact the evolution of technology. It was an amazing experience that truly combined learning and fun.
