ElectroRural: Sparking STEM Interest through Basic Electronics in Rural Nigerian Schools
This outreach program will take place at Bishop Crowther Seminary School, Awka, Anambra State, Nigeria, and will introduce students to the fundamentals of electronics through interactive, hands-on workshops. Participants will learn to identify basic electronic components, build simple circuits, and understand how electronics power everyday devices. The initiative will aim to ignite curiosity, promote problem-solving skills, and inspire students to consider future careers in STEM fields. By providing practical exposure and mentorship, ElectroRural will bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world applications, fostering innovation and self-confidence among rural youth.
To stimulate the interest of young and pre-university students in general engineering related topics and specifically those which use integrated circuits, the IEEE SSCS Tunisia Chapter co-organized the first version of the event EN’JUNIOR.
It is mainly the organization of a visit and a guided tour to the National Engineering School of Sfax (ENIS), Tunisia, on Saturday May 14th, 2022.
This visit can be a unique opportunity for these young students to discover what’s behind the new technologies, in particular those related to applications which are well known. These include Robots, CubeSats, and IoT systems.
IEEE WNC Section is sponsoring an exhibition booth at the Asheville Maker Faire! Come and see all the STEAM/STEM and other projects that the Section is doing including a new Meetup group and other activities.
