Mini Technovation Mini Technovation Technovation, an organization with the goal to “empower girls to become leaders, technology innovators and real-world problem solvers,” is now offering a short version of its popular technology entrepreneurship program curriculum. “Mini Technovation is a short (and sweet!) version of the full Technovation program. Students identify a problem they care about, brainstorm tech solutions, design an app prototype, and pitch their ideas.” The free program provides everything needed for an educator to run the activity with youth ages 8-18, including lesson plans and slides.
Barbara Liskov Barbara Liskov I am a professor of computer science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). My research and teaching are focused on how to make better software. Software has now become an essential part of many things we do, from interacting with the bank, to electronic commerce, and it is critical that the software behave properly.
ENGINEERING Challenge #1 - Engineering.com ENGINEERING Challenge #1 - Engineering.com Welcome to the ENGINEERING.com Challenge #1. This first challenge (yes, more are to follow) is a refresher on some basic engineering, algebra and physics principles. Most of these concepts are referenced in first year engineering textbooks. Hint: Some of these require a little "out of the box" thinking. But as an engineer that shouldn't be a problem.

2010 Survival Design Challenge 2010 Survival Design Challenge If you have to be stranded somewhere with someone, you might want to hope you are stranded with an engineer. Engineers think big and solve problems with whatever resources they have available so they would be great companions on a deserted island . Try this exercise to see if you can think like an engineer: During a field trip to a national wildlife refuge (or national forest), you and a friend get separated from the rest of the group and realize that you are totally lost. Your guide told you earlier that if you get lost: stay where you are, stay safe, and wait for someone to find you. It's getting late, and the temperature is dropping. When you dump out the contents of your backpack you see the following:
