Dream It. DO IT. PA – What’s So Cool About Manufacturing? Watch These 8th Graders Produced Videos!

Michael Reader

Dream It. DO IT. Is a national grassroots initiative by The Manufacturing Institute in Washington, D.C. “The initiative offers local manufacturers, schools, community-based organizations and other stakeholders the opportunity to partner with a respected national platform to promote manufacturing as a top tier career choice in the United States. Dream It. DO IT. Engages students, parents, and educators, and partners them with local manufacturers. Groups in 21 American states have joined this movement thus far.

As an example, a challenge was presented to 8th graders representing 19 teams from 16 public schools and a Catholic school in Lehigh Valley, PA, to produce 2.5-minute video clips about area manufacturers themed “What’s So Cool About Manfacturing?” The Lehigh Valley Skill Up Partnership group was the first in Pennsylvania to participate in Dream It. DO IT.
