TeenTech Cardiff 2024 Festival Virtual Innovation Live Event

This session is open to as many students as you like in Years 5-9

The TeenTech Cardiff Festival will bring together schools across the region for an exciting interactive programme to help young people understand the range of opportunities across digital, science and technology and the many different entry points.

Upfront of the festival, we will run a virtual TeenTech Innovation Live session, after which students will work in teams to create a project to make life better, simpler, easier or more fun on the topic of Ethical Innovation.

This session is open to as many students as you like. This could be an entire class or year group.

This will be an hour-long morning session, online with guest contributors working in contemporary industry and will feature guests showcasing exciting aspects of their work. The livestream could be viewed from a screen in several classrooms, or large hall if appropriate. Students can interact by submitting questions throughout the live stream. These questions come through to the TeenTech team, who send them through to the presenters to ask on screen. Students are then set an innovation challenge, where they build their own solutions to address real-world problems connected to the session topic.

Schools can then bring a group of ten students who have taken part in this event, to the TeenTech Cariff Festival on Thursday 5th December 2024 (at the All Nations Centre), where they will receive feedback from experts and also participate in a series of lively challenges and activities which bring the world of science and technology to life.
