Rich, powerful learning experience for our Junior year STEM Academy students via the 24-25 Lemelson-MIT-Inven Team Grant. Our students are learning the hard way that innovative problem solving means prototyping and presenting, getting critical feedback, taking that feedback and using it to make your prototype and thinking better, and then repeat. Thanks Kristen Tsaoys and Jaslin Kaur for facilitating.
