The Advanced Technology Division of Glendale College helped design and build a robot for James Monroe High School of North Hills, which took first place in the local FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics competition in February at Birmingham High School in the San Fernando Valley.
James Monroe competed against 25 other high schools in winning the local event and will now compete in the U.S. Regional Championship in Las Vegas at the end of March. This was a very rewarding experience for the Glendale College instructors who were involved; Aram Ohanis (Machine Technologies), John Kray (Welding), Jennifer Hughes (Electronics), and Tom Ferguson (Engineering). The four Glendale College instructors devoted their time and skills mentoring, teaching, and exposing the students to Design, Engineering, Electronics, and Manufacturing. This was a great opportunity and success for everyone involved. & |
