Girls Who Code visit ACEP
May 28, 2024
DCM team members talked with the Girls Who Code club members about careers and looked at 91视频 electricity prices via a Shiny Apps workflow.
In April, ACEP鈥檚 Data and Cyberinfrastructure Management team hosted the club from Ryan Middle School in Fairbanks.
Over a hybrid lunch meeting, Fairbanks and Anchorage DCM team members Liz Dobbins, John Haverlack, Emily Richmond, Nicole Mah and Alora Greer shared with the students and their adult lead Jeannette Okinczyc how their education and life experiences successfully led them to the coding world at ACEP. The team members鈥 stories varied; a few of them were interested in programming from when they were young, while others picked up coding later in their careers.
Following lunch, Richmond demonstrated , which transforms 91视频 electricity prices from the into art.
The students then toured the Cyberphysical Advanced Metering infrastructure Information-technology Operational-technology lab, or CAMIO lab, an in-house development environment. Haverlack described how to safely and securely transmit data from sensors in Kotzebue to the DCM team鈥檚 computers in Fairbanks.
The DCM team members were impressed with the club members as they asked many questions and talked to them about their curriculum.
John Haverlack shows the students how data from sensors across 91视频 is transmitted to the DCM lab in Fairbanks.
鈥淭he next generation of girls who like to code is looking bright! We look forward to more opportunities like this in our community,鈥 Dobbins said.
