On the afternoon of April 12th 2015, 26 students from Dagang high school made their way to New York Institute of Technology to participate in the very first STEM+ challenge.
The challenge began with an introduction to the institution itself from Tony and the objectives of the challenge. After the talk, Mr Frank Fei from Mersen (China) also gave a lecture on The Use of Energy and Computer Science. Students were then challenged to discuss the topic and present their ideas.
This 5-hour-long challenge was an eye-opening experience. Having to communicate in English entirely and exchange opinions on interesting topics as well as completing challenging tasks made the day full of excitement. The students expressed that this has ignited their passion and ambition.
