Thanks to the generous support of Edison International, The Tracy Family Charitable Fund, and The Berry Family Fund, PATA presents Spring Science and Technology classes.
“Are you coming back again?” A repeated question by many participants registered in this year’s PATA’s Introduction to Science & Technology courses. During April and May, PATA presented several activities that focused on Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics (STEAM). This year’s “Spring Training” was led and instructed by engineers, entrepreneurs, engineering students, and PATA’s co-founder/engineer, Yaw Davis. Courses were held at multiple sites to serve and provide opportunities to youth in Los Angeles and Compton, California. The specialized program ensured that students would learn about STEAM via educational hands-on activities. These activities included programming Arduino circuit boards and assembling rocket models. Entrepreneurs discussed how STEAM is utilized daily in their businesses and/or careers. Media technology was utilized in a fun and entertaining manner in order to capture the students’ interest and peak their curiosity in STEAM.
