FREE Ada Lovelace Day pack

[Originally posted on Twitter, as I can't see this toot from @findingada on Mastodon, I'm retooting it here]

Young people, teachers, parents and other educators! Take a look at a free Ada Lovelace Day pack to inspire girls to consider STEM careers. Pack includes teaching scenarios, posters and links http://bit.ly/1KFIdsr #girlsinSTEM #education #free

This week our #GLIDE girls learned about professional #Drone racing and had to #Engineer and test their own course obstacles! Next week we take them to the gym for the official race!😁 #STEM #GirlsInSTEM

Hey @NASA! These are our amazing #GLIDE (Girls Leading Innovation with Drones and Engineering) members! You’re gonna want to watch for their job applications in a few years!🚀

We missed you @carrierobledo 🥲

#GLIDE was 🔥this week! After watching video about how firefighters use #Drones, the girls had to build a house with windows, hide a fire & a person in 2 rooms, then use their @DJIGlobal Tellos to search each other’s houses!

If you're a scientist, engineer and #author currently pushing a children's book that is aimed at #GirlsInSTEM, it's not a good look when you only answer questions from boys.

The girls noticed. #IWD was only yesterday and it's fresh in their minds.

Might have just been you didn't spot any of the girls who raised their hands at your school visit / PR event / book signing, but you *must know* you've got to make that conscious effort.

[feel free to boost]

Any suggestions for a book, a website, something, for a 7-year-old #math prodigy?

By “prodigy” I mean “the teacher tells her that you can’t calculate ‘2 — 4’, she figures out on her own that there are negative numbers and different kinds of infinite.” Not to mention the two-digits multiplications.

Her parents are very supportive, but they both work in humanities. She’s also a girl, and we all know what too many people say to #girlsinstem.

#mathforkids #mathematics

Working on putting together a short science stream for this coming Thursday. We will be doing wind tunnel tests of #3dprinted aircraft! If there is time I will be putting a few space toys from this last Xmas print drive.
I will have more details on Tuesday as far as if I can do this one and will announce the day before if it's a go!

Well, it arises out of the f-d up situation in the US...

But a 9yo [African-American] girl who had the cops called on her by her privileged white male neighbor has been honoured by Yale

A few tweaks resulted in a significant performance boost, now it runs smoothly. #STEM

You’ll have to take my word for it:

My 8yo daughter playing with her chemistry set at the dining room table in her pj’s, goggles on, pipette in hand over a rack of test tubes is just…

So incredibly CUTE! 😍

#TBT I was the robot repair girl for a social enterprise. These are two of the robots I worked on as a technician. My team used such robots in social skills classes for children on the #autism spectrum.

That I was also on the spectrum warrants a mention. If I sit and talk with you about it, it's the story of an aspie helping others succeed in life. #lifelessons #girlsinstem #womeninstem

So proud of all of these teams, but especially the young women's teams! Way to go! 🎉 #GirlsInSTEM

@nuclearidini Speaking of ORNL, two of my university classmates, Helsa and Kiki, did research at ORNL. Helsa is now a professional data scientist and Kiki an #AI engineer. #womeninstem #girlsinstem #math #maths

#TBT Thanks to the "Letters to a Pre-Scientist" pen pal program (USA), these kids in a Californian elementary school got two copies of British diplomat Bryony Mathew's children's book "Qubits and Quiver Trees" which I bought.

I got to know her as a longtime listener of BBC Digital Planet, the fan club in which I was active in 2019. She was a neuroscientist by training. Always great to encourage #STEM #literacy in young ones.

Ok, time for a proper intro. Married, mom of two humans and two dogs. Former horse girl as well. Research scientist turned #STEM educator. Reconnecting with my #knitting thanks to an after school club where I teach pulling me in for lessons. Here for all the fiber arts. Some other interests include: #hiking #GirlsInSTEM #ADHD #RescueDogs and I’m sure there’s more but that’s good for now. Pic of one of many WIPs on the needles - Fiddlehead Mitts by Hello Yarn.
