Instructor for WISE Camp 2007: Information Technology as a Gateway to the World
In summer 2007, I co-taught a cross-cultural project to high school girls, along with my colleague Joey Lee, as part of the Women in Sciences and Engineering Camp. The goal of the camp is to encourage women to take up technology careers and as part of our project we had the students in the camp collaborate with 11th grade students ar DBMS High School in India. We were apprehensive about how this would work out because of the time difference and limited access to the Internet in India, but the project was a success and I really enjoyed the experience. Thanks to Sameer Honwad for travelling to India, to my mom and Mrs. Rajani Shekhar, the principal of DBMS High School for making this work. Check out the wiki with pictures and links to the students' blogs.
Collaborators: Joey J. Lee, Sameer Honwad, and Dr Chris Hoadley (dolcelab), Mrs Manju Paul and Mrs Rajani Shekhar (DBMS High School, India), and the WISE Institute at Penn State.
