The program has involved over 400 high school students and reached out to their families across North Philadelphia to raise community technology skills and improve preparedness of students to pursue their educational aims. We focus particularly on broadening participation among underrepresented youth in science, technology, engineering and math - so called STEM fields of study.</p> <p style="text-align:justify;">Today, Barack Obama’s campaign held a rally at Progress Plaza, located in North Philadelphia - <i>next door </i>to ITSRG’s location on Temple University’s Main Campus. Our recent opening of the ITSRG Workroom, a community-university computer technology learning space located in University Services Building at the corner of Broad and Oxford Streets, is the culmination of our long effort to situate our community outreach and collaborative programs in a dedicated lab on Temple University’s campus.  Read more <a href="http://www.itsrg.org/5/post/2008/10/itsrg-shares-photos-from-the-obama-rally-at-progress-plaza.html">here</a>.</p></p>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54096219http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54096219Sat, 11 Oct 2008 12:15:00 -0400<img src="http://7.media.tumblr.com/3hvsDN2eEexy5eknZ3mkKW7yo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091942http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091942Sat, 11 Oct 2008 11:28:14 -0400<img src="http://7.media.tumblr.com/3hvsDN2eEexy1xoxvukpjNevo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Progress Plaza is open for business for the day</p>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091492http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091492Sat, 11 Oct 2008 11:25:33 -0400<img src="http://10.media.tumblr.com/3hvsDN2eEexy0pbk1f7rHFKSo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091382http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091382Sat, 11 Oct 2008 11:24:35 -0400<img src="http://10.media.tumblr.com/3hvsDN2eEexy04iyjoMwTZngo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The campaign packs up</p>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091312http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54091312Sat, 11 Oct 2008 11:24:00 -0400<img src="http://7.media.tumblr.com/3hvsDN2eEexvy1943qWUUTZvo1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Could Leon Sullivan have imagined such a day at Progress Plaza?</p>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54085347http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54085347Sat, 11 Oct 2008 10:26:32 -0400<img src="http://10.media.tumblr.com/3hvsDN2eEexvw124p2LbocKTo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54085211http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54085211Sat, 11 Oct 2008 10:24:58 -0400<img src="http://15.media.tumblr.com/3hvsDN2eEexvum66pXn2Q8e6o1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>The view from McDonald’s at Girard Avenue at 7 am this morning</p>http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54085100http://itsrg.tumblr.com/post/54085100Sat, 11 Oct 2008 10:23:00 -0400
