This summer, students in our Summer Learning Academy participated in a cutting-edge literacy curriculum led by the MIT Media Lab that explored engineering, robotics, and AI through interactive storybooks and exciting in-class activities. They even made a new friend, Jibo the robot who made this activity more fun and interactive! Help expose students to STEAM by donating. https://lnkd.in/gjS6zkUY #STEAM #Education #SummerLearning #BostonPublicSchools

The life of Dr. Shirley Ann Jackson is a beacon of inspiration, shining brightly for all young women who dare to dream big in STEM.⠀ Read our July “Thinker” Blog to uncover how this trailblazing physicist redefined what’s possible in STEM, leaving a legacy that continues to inspire and uplift.⠀ The first African-American woman to earn a Ph.D. from MIT, Dr. Jackson was part of a graduating class with very few women and even fewer African American students. She had to prove her commitment to excellence in the face of incredible challenges—a skill that would lead her to greatness. Her groundbreaking work at MIT in theoretical solid-state physics was just the beginning of her incredible career. Dr. Jackson went on to make waves at AT&T Bell Labs, laying the groundwork for major advancements in telecommunications. Later, she served as Chair of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and President of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and became known as a transformative leader in higher education and government. Dr. Jackson dedicated her life to greatness, leaving a powerful legacy as a driving force in STEM. Discover more about Dr. Jackson and other inspiring figures who are shaping the future of STEM on our blog today. https://bit.ly/4dQhMyX #WomenInSTEM #DrShirleyAnnJackson #STEMLeaders #DiversityInSTEM
