IEEE-USA's November New, Free Audio Book Encourages Young Children to Explore, Be Curious and Be Creative
IEEE-USA’s November new, free audio book for members, Abigail and The Fish Tree, by Sonali Ranaweera, relates the story of a young girl who uses her curiosity and creativity to produce a gardening wonder.
IEEE-USA E-BOOKS’ youngest published author, Ranaweera believes we must all encourage young children to think outside the box, and expand their imaginations. Now 17, she was only 11 when she created the story.
OU Analytics User Group
The OU Analytics tool provides IEEE volunteer access to member data. It replaces SAMIEEE which was sunset in May. The OU Analytics User Group was formed to facilitate discussions among users, identify the top issues affecting user productivity, and provide a communication path between users and IEEE staff working to improve OU Analytics. The user group is currently meeting twice a month via WebEx. Meeting notes are published in the “IEEE OU Analytics” group in IEEE Collabratec. If you are interested in participating, contact Chris Gunning (cgunning@ieee.org) or Larry Hamerman (l.hamerman@ieee.org).
More information about OU Analytics is available at https://mga.ieee.org/resources-operations/volunteer-tools/samieeePartial Travel Funding Available to Humanitarian and Sustainable Development Conferences
