New Space: Tech Changer MakerSpace @ the USRA STEMaction Center
World Computer Exchange Field TripIn December 2018, members of Girls Who Code were invited to the Baltimore Washington Chapter of the World Computer Exchange to learn about the world of computer hardware. Program coordinators, Tom Graham and Lou Hauf, took time out of their regular monthly refurbishing routine to share their knowledge about refurbishing/reimaging computers. The girls learned a lot and were inspired by the work at the WCE.
The WCE meets on the second Saturday of every month during the academic year from 11 AM to 3 PM, we meet at the UMBC Training Center 6996 Columbia Gateway Drive, Suite 100 Columbia, MD 21046. |
