Reinvented Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that aspires to break barriers and aid the movement to get more girls involved in STEM by creating the nation’s first print magazine for women in STEM. They have a single mission in mind: to reinvent the general perception of women in STEM fields while inspiring interest in STEM for young women nationwide.
Their second issue, LADIES WHO HACK, features our Ladyada on the cover! This magazine is full of brilliant, inspiring women of all ages, and their stories need to be shared.
From one interview covering nineteen-year-old Reeny Botros and Catwalk Coding, a small camp of 25 girls in Wichita, KS that grew to a global scale expanding enrollment to girls in Mexico and Tanzania:
“Making a difference in these girls’ lives is really inspiring to me. When I was growing up, I didn’t have a lot of role models who were women in STEM, because they’re so scarce. To be that role model for them means a lot to me.”
This magazine is a joy to flip through, and we look forward to more representation and more women in STEM featured in big, gorgeous, glossy editorial covers.
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
