TeenTech MTI Festival Virtual Innovation Live Event
The TeenTech MTI Festival, for schools in North Warwickshire and South Leicestershire, will bring together schools and colleges across the region for an exciting interactive programme that will 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 live virtual innovation 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 sustainability. This session is open to as many students as you like. This could be an entire class or year group. This session is online with guest contributors working in contemporary industry. The livestream can 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 presenter to ask on screen. Students are then set an innovation challenge, where they will come up with ideas to address real-world problems connected to the session topic of Next-Gen Technology: Sustainability, Robotics, Transport and Energy.
