Hi all,
As a New Jerseyan, I am invoking bragging rights based on five 8th grade GIRLS who walked away with a top award at the National STEM Video Game Challenge. They were the only girls out of 28 awardees selected from a pool of 3700 entries. Hear an insightful interview with two of the girls, Sarah Lippman and Julia Weingaertner, 8th grade students at Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart, Princeton, NJ, designers of the "Animal Inequalities" computer game, and Alicia Testa, a technology integrator and computer and math teacher at the school, talk about the class project that got middle school girls thinking about computer programming and won awards at the National STEM Video Game Challenge
