Reports on Past Events

∙  Karl Geiger: Wordle for Nerdles
Josh Wardle's free, online game Wordle is a 2022 viral phenomenon. Wordle challenges players to figure out a five-letter English word within six guesses. Wrong guesses give players clues to help figure out the answer. Wordle has one game, one word per day. It's a simple, wake-me-up-during-coffee puzzle. This presentation looks at solving Wordle with just these basic tools, a little know-how, and a little creativity. (recording, slides)

∙  Girls Make STEM with Heart - Santa Paula
On Saturday, March 26, 62 middle school girls arrived for Girls Make STEM with Heart student workshops. Volunteers, which included IEEE members and local educators, came together to create a unique experience for girls and their parents. Students could choose from workshops on chemistry, circuits, or gravity and magnetism. The program was made possible in large part from donors to the IEEE Foundation and Techbridge Girls. This event is organized by the IEEE Buenaventura Section, with the gracious hospitality of Isbell Middle School in Santa Paula. (photos)
