My Project

My project seeks funding to implement the Carolina STEM Challenge: Egg Drop Kit, a comprehensive program designed to foster STEM rigor, collaboration, critical thinking, and 21st-century skills among students. This initiative will provide schools with all the necessary materials and resources to conduct an Egg Drop Challenge, promoting team building and hands-on learning experiences. Through this engaging activity, students will develop problem-solving abilities, creativity, and resilience while exploring principles of physics and engineering in a fun and interactive way.

In today's rapidly evolving world, it is essential to equip students with the skills and competencies needed to succeed in the 21st century.

The Egg Drop Challenge offers an ideal opportunity to engage students in STEM education while fostering teamwork and creativity. By participating in this challenge, students not only deepen their understanding of scientific concepts but also develop essential life skills such as collaboration, communication, and adaptability

The Carolina STEM Challenge: Egg Drop Kit offers a dynamic and engaging way to promote STEM rigor, collaboration, critical thinking, and 21st-century skills among students.
