Engineering Communication Writing Clips:
- Over 17 Fun Facts (50-300 words): on the invention of dishwashers, the laserphaco probe, etc.
- Women in Engineering Jeopardy-style quiz
Diya is currently working on longer blog articles and biographies of trailblazers.
The EngineerGirl website is designed to be fun and engaging, and Diya follows its writing style guidelines. The aim is to educate and inspire young women about STEM and encourage them to consider a career in it. Diya focuses on accurately representing women engineers and their inventions. She carefully crafts each clip to convey a positive and honest message, paying attention to word choice, tone, and reading level.
Diya also responds to Gallery questions from young students asking about engineering and has a profile on the website so students can learn about different types of engineers.
