Recent Activities
Fresh Start STEM
On Saturday, April 24, 2021, the Society of Women Engineers Houston Area (SWE-HA) section participated in the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) Houston Professionals bi-annual Fresh Start STEM event sponsored by HP, as a workshop facilitator. Fresh Start consists of interactive workshops that creatively engage students, ranging from 3rd to 12th grade, to explore the many different disciplines in the field of engineering. The main goal of NSBE Fresh Start is to motivate children to set academic goals in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The spring event was held virtually with students participating from as far as the NSBE Africa chapter. SWE-HA volunteer, Leteshia A. Lowe, hosted three workshops with middle school students, 7th-8th grade, on Scratch Programming, where they learned how to animate their names using the visual block based programming tool. The students really enjoyed learning the programming language, learning about engineering and getting to meet students from all over.
We Are Girls Houston Conference
On last Saturday, April 27, 2019, SWE and IBM hosted a STEM related session at the We Are Girls Houston Conference. The workshop, Rocket Science and Rocket Cars focused on the investigation of Newton’s third law of motion by designing and constructing rocket- powered racing cars from Styrofoam food trays and inflated balloons. The girls had loads of fun learning about how rockets work and the engineering process. Thank you to your volunteers that participated.
