Celebrating National Robotics Week: April 4-12 Today we had a public viewing at AMIS (Academy of Multilingual Immersion Studies) of "Underwater Dreams" - a movie about a team of Hispanic high school students competing in underwater robots competition and beating MIT students for the 1st place! This event was sponsored by SHPE Cincinnati (http://www.shpecincinnati.org) More info about the movie: Our BIG THANK YOU goes to the principal Mr. Sherwin Ealy, the wonderful Matesi Leoni Lang, and to all SHPE Volunteers who dedicated the time to help the AMIS Students to explore the world of Robotics!!!
Noche/Día de Ciencias - Science Nights – is a national program to promote knowledge and interest in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) among the Hispanic community. We also appreciate the support and help from RRight Now Communications, LLC The goal of Dia de Ciencias is to bring awareness to K-12 students and parents to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), college opportunities, scholarship information, and resources . The event is a 3 to 4 hour event where students will be engaged in fun STEM hand-oh activities while parent are engage in workshops that introduce them to STEM and provide them awareness about college, and information about financial aid. ![]() Cincinnati's 1st Hispanic YP & College Students Networking Event!! Please register on Facebook In December we have initiated a "STEM Toys Drive", and several sponsors were kind enough to donate STEM Toys for students from AMIS (Academy of Multilingual Immersion Studies) ![]() The goal of the STEM Toy Drive is to focus our efforts on toys that will help to promote STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) education among the youth within our Hispanic community, and Cincinnati in general. We hope these STEM toys will help to spark interest in the next generation of Engineers and Technologists! Curious for examples of STEM Toys?
