00:00.940 --> 00:03.162
great girls from Yokosuka Middle school

00:03.162 --> 00:05.329
visited CBS to learn how they use math

00:05.329 --> 00:07.551
and science in their everyday work . As

00:07.551 --> 00:09.384
part of the science . Technology

00:09.384 --> 00:11.607
engineering and Math or stem conference

00:11.607 --> 00:11.260
which emphasizes the importance of math

00:11.260 --> 00:13.260
and science to young girls . I want

00:13.260 --> 00:15.316
young explains . We wanted a project

00:15.316 --> 00:17.038
that was hands on . Um Not too

00:17.038 --> 00:19.149
complicated but complicated enough to

00:19.149 --> 00:21.260
challenge the girls in what they were

00:21.260 --> 00:23.316
doing from Michaela edge Science and

00:23.316 --> 00:25.371
Math is a love hate relationship . I

00:25.371 --> 00:27.538
love science but I really don't have ,

00:27.538 --> 00:29.760
I really don't have a liking for math .

00:29.760 --> 00:31.990
I learned about the measurements and

00:31.990 --> 00:35.620
stuff and I see how it helps us today

00:35.630 --> 00:37.908
girls also visited special agents at N .

00:37.908 --> 00:40.019
C . I . S . Who demonstrated how they

00:40.019 --> 00:42.186
use math and science in their everyday

00:42.186 --> 00:42.090
job . Special agent Erica Mariner

00:42.090 --> 00:44.201
explains . I think it's important for

00:44.201 --> 00:46.368
them to see role models such as myself

00:46.368 --> 00:48.534
and the other female special agents to

00:48.534 --> 00:50.757
show them that science is fun and it is

00:50.757 --> 00:52.770
useful and it helps us to do a very

00:52.770 --> 00:54.659
interesting important job . Petty
