Celebrating and recognizing the unbridled imagination of primary and secondary students across the state, the Nextech CSforGood Fall Competition challenges K-12 Hoosier students to innovate, create and build positive change in their schools and local communities.
Your Jennings County Middle School Science club has the opportunity to send projects to this competition. We can have multiple teams of 3-6 individuals. We need you! Do you have ideas on ways Computer Science can be used for good when applied to real problems that affect our schools and communities?
Each team will submit a technology project – either a software application, website, physical computing device or prototype (digital or paper) by November 4th to be entered into the contest.
The top four teams from each division will be invited to the Nextech CSforGood Celebration on Wednesday, December 4, 2024 at the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis. The finalists will showcase their projects, along with how they honed their problem solving, teamwork and CS skills, to a panel of judges, legislators, policy leaders, influencers and the tech community. One winning team per division will be announced at the end of the event. Each winning team member will be awarded a $200 gift card and teacher sponsors will receive $1,000 to go towards tech for their classrooms.
If you are interested be sure to join the Science Club Google Classroom (d2vngkw) and stop by and let Ms. V know in room 27.
