2021 Ducati Multistrada V4 Production Begins, to Come with World’s First Radar-Based Technology

Ducati has announced that the production of the upcoming Multistrada V4 has begun at its factory in Borgo Panigale, Italy.

The details of the engine, however, will be revealed on October 15.

The headline feature of the new Multistrada V4 may not be the new engine, though.

Personal interactions are important drivers of STEM identity in girls — ScienceDaily

By Gertha Selvidge 2 weeks ago

As head of the educational outreach arm of the Florida State University-headquartered National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, Roxanne Hughes has overseen dozens of science camps over the years, including numerous sessions of the successful SciGirls Summer Camp she co-organizes with WFSU .

In a new paper published in the Journal of Research in Science Teaching, Hughes and her colleagues took a much closer look at one of those camps, a coding camp for middle school girls.

They found that nuanced interactions between teachers and campers as well as among the girls themselves impacted how girls viewed themselves as coders.

The MagLab offers both co-ed camps and summer camps for girls about science in general as well as about coding in particular . Hughes, director of the MagLab’s Center for Integrating Research and Learning , wanted to study the coding camp because computer science is the only STEM field where
