At the Little Native Hockey League (LNHL) tournament last year, Director Melanie Howard started thinking about different ways to engage thousands of hockey-obsessed Aboriginal youth.

A year later, she returns to Ontario카지노 게임 컬렉션�s largest Aboriginal youth hockey tournament with 카지노 게임 컬렉션�The Hockey Project,카지노 게임 컬렉션� a four-part video series featuring Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Gaels hockey player and Metis Caitlyn Lahonen.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�We strive to connect Aboriginal youth with role models so that they can see themselves in engineering,카지노 게임 컬렉션� Ms. Howard says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�The Hockey Project is great because Caitlyn카지노 게임 컬렉션�s story encourages Aboriginal youth, especially girls, to dream of a future as an engineering student as well as a varsity athlete.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

Ms. Lahonen, a fourth-year chemical engineering student, describes her background and interest in engineering in the first video. The second video focuses on the connection between engineering and hockey. Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s researcher Tim Bryant explains how his experience as a junior hockey player with the Kingston Frontenacs eventually led to his interest in blending engineering with sport and sport equipment design.

Other videos provide viewers with a glimpse into Ms. Lahonen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s day-to-day life and her volunteer work with youth hockey players in Kingston. Ms. Lahonen says she loves getting involved in helping with the Aboriginal community.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�I would like kids to watch the video and see that playing hockey and getting a great education is possible if you stay committed to the goals you have set out for yourself,카지노 게임 컬렉션� she says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�And I would also like them to take away that hockey and school are a lot of fun.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

AAE worked with the Media Squad in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science to develop the videos. The videos include footage shot using a Go-Pro camera attached to Ms. Lahonen and other players.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�This collaborative project showcases the talents of both the Media Squad students and Caitlyn,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Meagan Suckling, Marketing and Communications Coordinator, Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�The storytelling element of the videos successfully demonstrates how someone카지노 게임 컬렉션�s passion or hobby can lead to an education and career in engineering.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

Ms. Howard will screen the videos at the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 booth set up at the LNHL tournament March 16-19. AAE has also .
