Mrs. Parks' Computer Science I and II students (along with Mr. Casey's 3rd hr Multimedia class) attended an Amazon Future Engineer Virtual Fulfillment Center Tour today. The students learned how computer science, engineering, and people work together to fulfill customer orders at Amazon. Throughout the tour, the students got to meet and hear about the careers of three engineers who enable this technology. The computer-science focused interactive tour provided a front-row seat into how algorithms, machine learning, and more power the Amazon fulfillment process. Mrs. Parks' students will be chatting with additional Amazon engineers soon, and also competing in the Amazon Cyber Robotics Challenge! #HPSLions #amazonfutureengineer
Our Howe HS eSports team welcomed a special guest speaker today during their 5th hour class. Former CASC eSports team member and Heavener HS graduate, Dawson Adrean spoke to the class about the skills and teamwork needed for competitive eSports, and shared tips for developing specific skill sets. The newly formed Howe HS eSports team is a member of the Oklahoma eSports League (OESL), and the team is already scrimmaging/competing with other schools around the state in after school matches, under the guidance of their Coach, Mr. Brett Casey. In Sept, OSSAA added eSports as a sanctioned sport. During this first year under OSSAA, eSports will be exhibition season only, and OSSAA state championship competitions will start during the 2022-23 school year. According to the website NFHS.org, [eSports] "provide many opportunities for growth and learning, such as the creation and practice of “soft skills,” including communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity. Many of the same skills that employers are looking for in recent graduates." Learn more about eSports at https://www.nfhs.org/media/1020194/parents_esports_guide.pdf. Good luck to the Howe Lions eSports team during their match today at 4 pm! We would like to send a BIG THANK YOU to Dawson Adrean for sharing your valued expertise and motivation with the team! #HPSLions
