Throwback Thursday: A History of Robots
How did we get from Archytas’ mechanical bird propelled by steam to today’s more complex robots (like our beloved Susan, the line-following pig)? Time, technology, and creativity provide a path.

Looking Back: Female Heroes in STEM
Last year, I wrote a blog post that featured everyone’s favorite women in STEM history. In celebration of yesterday’s International Women’s Day, I’d like to bring that back!
Women’s History in STEM
As I mentioned a couple days ago, we will have a greater focus on women’s history within STEM this month. Last summer, I did a blog series focusing on just that! With it being the beginning of the month, I’d like to do a throwback to one of my first posts in the series that provided an overarching history of women’s involvement in the long history of science, technology, engineering, and math.
Women in STEM: Role Models from the Past
Welcome to this week’s installment of the Women in STEM series. Today, I’ll be showing some women from the past who stand as amazing role models not just for those interested in STEM, but also for those who are interested in strong and brilliant human beings. I asked the marketing team at Digilent about women in STEM who had inspired them and why, and I got some great examples. I’ll include the reasons my coworkers and I think of them as role models (in captions) and a brief bio of each woman.
