Today I had the pleasure of speaking to 3 groups of 5th graders about what it means to be a computer engineer. I started out my presentation with one of my favorite clips from Dilbert, it’s about ‘The Knack’. I’d like to thank the school for the opportunity for me to come in show the kids the exciting world of engineering.
The kids were great and very receptive. I’m posting a few resources here for them.
Students, I’d love to hear your feedback on today’s presentation. Feel free to post comments below and share your thoughts. You are also welcome to ask me questions.
