Fort Bend County Libraries’ Young Adult program is celebrating Teen Tech Week™, March 12-19, with special programming. The libraries encourage teens in grades 9 through 12 to “tune in” to the library and take advantage of spaces where they can explore, create, and share content.

Gaming, use of computers and databases, and access to online homework help are important, and librarians are available to help students access these educational and recreational resources.

During Teen Tech Week, the schedule of Young Adult programs includes S.T.E.A.M.-inspired activities, such as video-game coding and video-editing, as well as a physics-exploration exercise.

“Teen Tech Week: Building Bridges” – Saturday, March 12, 2:00-3:00 pm, Sienna Branch Library YA Room. Ever wonder how overpasses, or bridges like the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, can be built to withstand thousands of pounds, and even earthquakes, without collapsing? How do engineers do that? Learn how to build sturdy, reliable structures using only household items at this online program. Reservations required.

“Teen Tech Week: FlexClip Video Workshop” – Tuesday, March 15, 3:30-4:30 pm, Sienna Branch Library Computer Lab. Learn how to easily create and edit videos online using FlexClip to showcase graphic, vocal, or music skills. Build videos from scratch using FlexClip’s catalog of media, or by following a template that is provided. Registration required.

“Teen Tech Week: Code Your Own Video Game” – Saturday, March 19, 2:00-3:00 pm, Sienna Branch Library Computer Lab. Teens who are interested in learning how to make their own video games will learn the fundamentals in this online workshop. Discover how to use Scratch to design a video game, a character, and more! Reservations required.

Teens can earn volunteer-service hours by participating in FBCL’s Young Adult Advisory Councils, where they can express ideas, help organize upcoming activities, and suggest new programs and books that would be of interest to teens at the library.

“YA Advisory Council” (ONLINE) – Tuesday, March 8, 4:00-5:00 pm. Reservations required; a link to the Webex meeting will be sent to registrants.
