21-22

Slovenia

After reaching out to our contacts at Motorola, we secured a sponsorship to teach elementary students in Slovenia how to block code remotely so they get a better understanding of technology.
We coded 3 mini games over the series of 3 meetings, built curriculum and provided them with resources.

UT STEM Conference

After networking with 4 other STEM advocacies and showing them our experience with STEM outreach, we inspired them to reach out and teach students themselves.

SRE STEM Night

We worked with students at this event to teach them design principle through paper airplane desings and showed off our physical CADded robot, demonstrating that STEM is accessible to anyone.

Girls Engineering Day

We taught students here at this event design principles through paper airplanes, and showed that these design skills can be applied anywhere.

Makerarm

We spoke to the CEO and one of the founders of Makerarm, a company that is making a 3d printer-robotic arm, Zaib Husain. We learned about the design process, efficient project management, and how to run an efficient team. This helped us organize our iterative process for our subteams.

NVIDIA

We met with Gerard Andrews, the product marketing manager at NVIDIA Austin. He taught us how NVIDIA used graphic processing capabilities and computer processing power to create real-world simulations. His suggestion to record feedback from multiple sensors and inputs to reduce fail points in localization helped improve our autonomous significantly.

IBM

We spoke with the Program Director of IBM's Security Services Development Nanci Li. We learned that managing, leading and organizing teams in STEM fields aren't easy, and we got her advice on efficient software management and design process implementation given COVID coordination.

Momentum

We hosted an STEM even where we used connections that we already had like Cognite and Motorola to gather speakers, and also reached out to other companies to widen our net of speakers by getting them from other fields as well to teach the community about STEM.

International

Norway: We created a STEM camp at a Norwegian high school in partnership with Cognite to raise awareness for STEM and gain enough interest there to start a club.
Expanding Slovenia: After the success and popularity of the classes in Slovenia, we planed to incorporate more people into them as well as start new FTC and FLL teams to better serve their community.
