CHICAGO (CBS) -- Some Latino students are shedding light on Hispanic Heritage Month with a learning project.
Dozens of students spent the weekend building solar suitcases. The portable devices can provide electricity for several hours.
The project, sponsored by ComEd, is also a way for students to get excited about STEM careers. That's science, technology, engineering and math.
Last week our students used solar technology to make solar suitcases. Now, these suitcases will help light up a model of the #Chicago skyline during #LatinoFashionWeek in honor of #HispanicHeritageMonth! ???? pic.twitter.com/9RmRGpy7kN
