Professor, Students Take Engineering to Area Youth
Students in Columbus City Schools are building working speakers out of nothing but paper and magnets — and sparking their interest in STEM, the studies of science, technology, engineering and math.
This is in no small part due to Betty Lise Anderson, a professor of electrical and computer engineering, who with Ohio State engineering students is taking the initiative to bring engineering into local high schools.
Early this year, Anderson traveled to Metro Early College High School to teach students how to build the speakers. Students for STEM, a new volunteer student organization aimed at facilitating connections between Ohio State students and Columbus City Schools STEM clubs, assisted her.
