RARITAN TWP. — District residents are invited to join students this week at Hunterdon Central High School's first Teen Tech Week in the school library (IMC).

Visitors and students can see a 3D printer at work, get a radio station tour, learn the ins and outs of Windows 8 and the pros and cons of buying a PC compared to a Chromebook.

The activities are held in or start from the IMC, across the parking lot from the tennis courts at the Junction Road entrance closest to route 31. Check the schedule online for a full list. It is held two more days: Wednesday, April 23, and Thursday, April 24, from 2:05 to 3:20 p.m.

Teen Tech Week is the Young Adult Library Services Association's annual celebration of digital literacy and technology via libraries. This year's theme is DIY@ your library.

It was to be held in March, librarian Marci Zane said, but was postponed because of the many snow-related closings, and to allow students time to develop the event and their presentations.

On Monday the dismissal bell rang and students filled the room, some to do schoolwork but many to learn more about what's happening at Central inside and beyond the classroom.

Fellow students were the primary presenters, whether someone wanted to learn more about the "in" mobile game 2048, see a 3D printer at work, or hear how a student-built robot came together.

HCTV crew members put together a segment to show on the high school's station. On April 23, the school's radio station will broadcast — via the internet — from Tech Week.

According to the American Library Association, Teen Tech Week raises awareness "about how your library creates a space to extend teens’ learning beyond the classroom where they can explore, create and share content.

"From maker spaces, to coding classes to online knitting clubs, libraries can leverage the do-it-yourself theme to show how libraries provide meaningful contributions to the educational and social development of the teens in your community."
