The project could be a mobile app, website, or robotics project, but the girls must be able to demonstrate it and provide a science fair type display showing their problem, any supporting research, their solution, and other information about the technology they used. For example: flow charts, prototypes, code samples, design samples, future ideas, etc.
The NW Regional App Challenge is a chance for girls to demonstrate their coding project and meet with other like-minded girls. Girls will get great swag, have loads of fun, and have the opportunity to show off the projects they have worked so hard to complete. There’s also a FREE lunch, great lunch speaker, and the chance to rub elbows with two real Venture Capitalists (just like on Shark Tank), University professors, and local technology company CEOS.
The goals is to engage student creativity and encourage their participation in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education fields.
