JHU Engineering students created STEM-focused videos to inspire Baltimore City elementary schools students during remote learning.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Since learning went online as a result of the global pandemic, keeping elementary school students engaged while they attend school remotely has been an enormous challenge for teachers, parents, and students.<\/p>\n

At the Whiting School, a group of electrical and computer engineering<\/a> students combatted this problem by creating a series of short videos designed to stimulate Baltimore City Schools students\u2019 interest in studying science, technology, engineering, and math topics. In their \u201cMeet the Engineer\u201d series, the Johns Hopkins students talk about their own experiences studying engineering, their research, and what inspires and excites them about the field.<\/p>\n

During non-pandemic times, these engineering students volunteer in the Whiting School\u2019s Center for Educational Outreach\u2019s STEM Achievement in Baltimore City Elementary Schools<\/a> after-school program, focused on strengthening STEM skills in early grades.<\/p>\n

SABES coach Stephanie Buggs came up with the idea for the videos. \u201cWe hoped the videos would provide students with an engaging experience and opportunity to connect with experts who would inspire their thinking about STEM,” Buggs says.<\/p>\n

Graduate student Arlene Chiu\u2019s video focused mainly on the process of designing experiments. “The main goal in creating these videos was to introduce myself to the kids, despite not being able to interact with them in person,” Chiu says. Chiu’s submission, in particular, created a buzz among the program’s female students\u2014not only because of the subject matter, but also because they were excited to see a woman engineer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
