    Another set of volunteers hard at work assembling the second round of Automotive Women's Alliance x MAGICBIT STEM Kits at the Ford Motor Company Factory at Corktown this past Friday. We now have enough STEM Kits assembled to take into small classrooms - or larger groups with groups of 2 or more per kit - but there are still kits to build! Keep your eyes peeled, as we may host another STEM Kit party in the fall. Thank you again to everyone who has donated their time, effort, and wonderful company thus far! These kits will support out newest STEM Committee program introducing middle and high school students to the basics of coding for vehicle motion / steering, lighting, autonomous capabilities such as obstacle detection, and more. 💡Have questions or want to help us pilot these Kits with your students? Reach out to me! -- Susan Rokosz, Shelly Nseir, Maya Makhlouf, Priya Marwah, Erin Schrieber, Ava Billimoria, Venetia Petteway, Jack Thatcher
