Educators as Catalysts: Fostering Young Girls� Interest in STEM
Description
For young girls considering a career in STEM or IT, early influences are key. In a recent study conducted by Logitech and Girls Who Code, over half of women (60%) said a parent or a teacher encouraged them to study computer science, demonstrating the pivotal role educators play in supporting women at a young age. In this panel, attendees will hear from educators and leading women in STEM fields discuss learning best practices and actionable tech tips for fostering and encouraging young girls' interests. Together, we will prepare the next generation of innovators and problem solvers!
