Director Highlights: Nationwide Guided Hackathon

Rushika Kunarswamy, Udbhav Avadhani, and Anant Mashalkar, Regional Directors from Washington, New Jersey, and California, came together to form a series of workshops taking students through the basics of data visualization and machine learning. Students were able to hear from experts in the fields and completed the workshops by finishing their own data science project!

Our Regional Directors wanted to recognize the top four data science presentations by students as well as the Honorable Mentions! Below, we have attached two of the winning presentations.

Top Four Hackathon Presentations (In no particular order): Jasmitha S., Annika S., Tanishka, and Rahil M.

Honorable Mentions (In no particular order): Samarth K., Sri N., Shreya S., and Siddharth S.

We want to give a big thank you to all the students who participated and all the Directors that planned and organize this event! Stay tuned for more news about what Innoverge and our Regional Directors are up to!

Innoverge’s Remote Learning Program 2020

Hello everyone, and welcome to Innoverge’s Latest Updates Page. To start off, we will be covering the 2020 Remote Learning Program launched in November-December of 2020!

Through this 3-week program, we shipped free STEM kits to 15 families across the US, spending $237. Students were encouraged to explore chemistry, physics, and entrepreneurship through a hands-on approach. Here is a brief run-down of what students learned!

Week 1: Participants built circuits of wires and light bulbs to learn about the properties of electricity! Students built both a series and a parallel circuit at the end of the session.

Week 2: Students learned about chemistry and Newton’s Laws of Motion. They experimented with vinegar, baking soda, and Alka Seltzer to make a rocket.

Week 3: At the end of the program, students developed a project using their newfound chemistry and physics knowledge. They were given “space scenarios” and developed engineering-based solutions to issues given.

After watching the positive impact of the Remote Learning Program, we are expanding this program in 2021, bringing free STEM kits to youth in more communities nationwide.

Would you like to support our programs, like the Remote Learning Program, to expand barrier-less STEM education for youths? Donate here, or get involved in Innoverge by subscribing to our Newsletter, becoming a Regional Director, or being a mentor for our Incubator Mentorship Program!
