  • [1]
  • In this article a female engineer discuss the stereotypes of females in the engineering world. That a woman engineer is something unorthodox, and that most people view engineers to only be men.
  • Problem: The problem is the lack of cultural diversity, and equality of access to everyone; without being biased because of race, gender, or other characteristics.

How does it relate to me?


  • Solution: The media, schools, and adults should start to have fair and equal exceptions for kids starting at a young age. Therefore; no matter who you are you can picture yourself going into the engineering field, or any other field.

  • YouTube Instant
  • This article is about a guy name Feross Aboukhadijeh who started YouTube Instant. This started out in college when his roommate and him made a bet to see if Feross could start up a version of Instant Google for YouTube. Once it got started it only took about a day for his invention to blow up into a success story. This incident could fall under People and Machines. Feross made it faster for users to use YouTube.
