You Go Girls! Part Two

After our brilliant podcast, Ella and I re-teamed to bring you a YouTube video about the article: Give Girls A Chance: Building A Bridge to Science and Technology. This article by Roberta Furger introduces TechBridge Which is a after school and summer program that encourages girls to interact with science, technology, mathematics and engineering. Ella and I both were encouraged by the article. It spoke of how girls lag behind boys when it comes to enjoying and engaging with technology. This article gave examples of how TechBridge has helped combat this issue. Ella was very encouraging for girls not to be afraid of technology but to allow it to help them learn more! Enjoy our video!
