9:30 AM SKILLFUL DISCUSSION

Margo Duesterhaus

You know how to discuss things, right? Ever wonder why so many times there are lots of words, but nothing happens? In the Artemis Project, we want to do things, not just talk about them; but often discover that we're hampered both by our reliance on network communication and our lack of skill in discussing the topic at hand. So please listen carefully and participate in this exercise.

2:30 PM PLANNING THE ARTEMIS PROJECT

Greg Bennett

Five years later, it's time to take a look at the definition of the Artemis Project and plan what we do next. We've heard about all that's going on to get us to the moon. Which of these projects fit with the Artemis Project, and what is the role of each in the Project?
