新聞分享這篇文章分享這篇文章提供的超過2000名學生參加了今年的挑戰第36屆青年工程設計項目針對解決實際問題。加州聖何塞,2023年5月1日科技,從宣布結果的第36屆年度青年工程設計項目——科技的挑戰,提出了亞馬遜。今年的挑戰是“度過風暴”和挑戰團隊建造的設備可以從大風保護脆弱的對象。團隊致力於設備於2022年10月開始,然後測試他們的解決方案的展示4月29日和30日,2023年。科技挑戰帶來了數以百計的誌願者來自矽穀幫助判斷學生團隊和提供反饋工程設計過程。超過500人團隊在4到12年級的學生參加了科技的挑戰,提出了亞馬遜。我們如何保護工程師對災害性天氣事件嗎?問題工程師越來越多的思考,和成千上萬的有前途的年輕工程師的問題上的技術挑戰:在風暴,4月29日和30日。今年,學生設計結構能夠保護脆弱的對象從風。優化他們的設計團隊花了幾個月的時間,記錄他們的過程在工程期刊和共同努力建立一個解決方案。 "At The Tech, we always hope to inspire a passion for problem solving in young people. This year's Tech Challenge showed thousands of students that the real problems they see in their neighborhoods or on the news are within their ability to address," said Katrina Stevens, President and CEO of The Tech. The Tech Challenge, a signature program of The Tech, invites teams of students in Grades 4–12 to use the engineering design process to solve a problem related to the real world. It reinforces 21st-century skills including creativity, problem-solving, design, teamwork, leadership, perseverance and learning from failure. This year The Tech Challenge is working with two schools in Kenya, Tech Challenge alumni Shiven Patel and his mother Shital Patel to engage more than 750 students in a past Tech Challenge. Helping Shiven are fellow students, Ian Pearce and Tobias Mikkelsen. Lions Primary School and Melvin Jones Lions Academy in Nakuru, Kenya will host the program including a showcase event on June 24. "When given the opportunity young people are inspired to solve big, challenging problems," said Abby Longcor, Senior Director of The Tech Challenge. "We've had teams participate from other countries before, but to bring the program to a new country to students who've never had access to engineering before is really special."
