Acropolis in Athens, Greece is an ancient citadel that can be described by tales of greek mythology. - Would you ever leave a hole on the roof of a building? Well, the Greeks definitely would and they did! This citadel has existed for over 2,500 years now; not only do the buildings live on, so do the tales! - If you’re interested to find out why there is a hole on a roof and why it may relate to Zeus (the god of thunder), check out the provided link in our bio! The video is... a 360 virtually simulated Acropolis that highlights the different key stories associated with the citadel! - - - - - - #stem #science #education #stemeducation #steam #engineering #technology #womeninstem #robotics #learning #coding #math #tech #chemistry #edtech #research #kids #biology #art #arduino #womeninscience #scientist #stemgirls #school #stemforkids #mathematics #physics #robot #innovation #college See more

You know about Earth, but do you know about exoplanets? - Exoplanets orbit a sun other than our own. Surprisingly enough, exoplanets weren’t officially confirmed until 1992! Since then, a lot of research has gone into identifying and studying these unfamiliar planets. - In the provided link in our bio, you will be introduced to six exoplanets-- from planets covered in clouds, to planets so hot that the surface is scattered with molten lava and constant thunderstorms! If you ...want to find out more, please check out the commentary 360 virtual tour! - - - - - - - #stem #science #education #stemeducation #steam #engineering #technology #womeninstem #robotics #learning #coding #math #tech #chemistry #edtech #research #kids #biology #art #arduino #womeninscience #scientist #stemgirls #school #stemforkids #mathematics #physics #robot #innovation #college See more

Since today is Earth day AND throwback Thursday, it's the perfect time to learn about the first women environmental engineer, Ellen Swallow Richards. - In 1868, Richards attended Vassar College to study chemistry. In 1870, Richards was the first American woman to be awarded a degree in chemistry. She then went on to be the first woman to study at MIT, but due to her gender, she was considered an unofficial student. - At MIT, Richards started a women's laboratory to teach ot...her women about the practical applications of chemistry. Richards studied ecology extensively and made discoveries that allowed for the improvement of the quality of the water supply. - Although many people did not want to admit her expertise in the area of water testing, she became a trusted consultant for many companies. - Click the link in bio to watch an exciting video that will teach you more about this incredible chemist and environmental engineer! - - - - - - - #stem #science #education #stemeducation #steam #engineering #technology #womeninstem #robotics #learning #coding #math #tech #chemistry #edtech #research #kids #biology #art #arduino #womeninscience #scientist #stemgirls #school #stemforkids #mathematics #physics #robot #innovation #college See more
