IEEE emeritbadges.org Program
The IEEE emeritbadges.org program has developed hands-on electricity and electronics instructional material based on the Boy Scouts' merit badge requirements. Instructional material for computer education is being developed. Any student, boy or girl can use the program to enhance technical literacy and learn more about viable engineering and other technical career options.  The IEEE emeritbadges.org program will be sponsoring the Electricity Merit Badge and the Electronics Merit Badge booth at the 2010 National Scout Jamboree.

In its third annual competition, IEEE-USA is awarding the following: first prize, $2,000; second, $1,500; and third, $1,000. A special award of $500 will be given for the most innovative and effective presentation of a video entry to the "tween" target audience. The three judge panel includes: Andrew Quecan, a Ph.D. student in electrical engineering Stanford University; Suzette Aguilar, a Ph.D. student in radio frequency engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison; and Nate Ball, mechanical engineer and host of PBS' Design Squad.   The award winning entries will also be feature in the first nationwide Web-based gathering of engineering students, an "Engineers Week Blast!" live from Howard University in Washington, D.C. on 18 Feb. from 8-9 p.m. ET, at http://www.ibroadcasts.tv/asce-live-webcast.html.
