Stembition

Inspiration

STEM as we know it is one of the most unbalanced fields in terms of demographics snd financial backgrounds and prevents underrepresented groups from having the opportunity to truly feel included and requires easier access for underresourced and remote locations to learn about STEM. As it is also a profitable field, acquiring a STEM job can help lift families out of poverty.

What it does

Our website has an online sign up form for free workshops, links, resources, etc for young students to learn stem.

How we built it

Using replit as the IDE and html and css as the programming languages.

Challenges we ran into

We are from the US so our time zones are very different. It is unfortunate that we have less time to submit our project as on Friday we were in school and the majority of the hacking time conflicts with our sleeping schedule. We had to upload a demo video with no sound because everyone in my home is sleeping.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

However, we worked as we can within a shorter time limit to finish our resource website.

What we learned

To communicate and work quickly within time limits.

Theme connection

We are all high schoolers, and we are using ed tech to promote more diversity and inclusion within stem by promoting free and accessible online resources for students especially from underrepresented and underresourced backgrounds.
