Homestead-Miami Speedway and Ten80 Education will welcome more than 400 middle and high school students from across the country to showcase their team’s engineering, enterprise and robotics skills in the National STEM League Finals 2016. Forty student teams will participate in the event, including teams from six schools located in the Miami-Dade and Broward County Public School districts. The finals will be hosted at the Speedway’s remote control track, RC Raceway, where numerous remote control competitions are held throughout the year.
Following the preliminary stages, where hundreds of teams from all over the United States contended in an online points race and in face-to-face regionals, the groups advancing to Homestead-Miami Speedway will put their STEM knowledge to the test in racing and robotics challenges, enterprise presentations, engineering projects and graphic design. Student teams from 18 different states will partake in the National STEM League Finals. Following competition, teams will be recognized in an awards ceremony to celebrate their achievements.
Ten80 Education is a micro-publisher of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) curriculum that has been implemented in engineering, computer science and STEM classrooms and clubs in 41 states. Students working with Ten80’s Student STEM Challenge curriculum are invited to own their own businesses specializing in racing, robotics, energy, or technologies/innovations that emerge through the combination of hardware and software. They are also invited to collaborate and compete in the National STEM League. This focus on enterprise, innovation and team-oriented challenges inspires a diverse, non-traditional audience to engage in STEM learning.
