Design and Pitch Challenges in STEM: Merging Entrepreneurship and Mathematics Learning

Following the award of the National Science Foundation Grant, JASON Learning has partnered with North Carolina State University to bring the Design and Pitch Challenges in STEM: Merging Entrepreneurship and Mathematics Learning competition to life.

With JASON’s capability to reach even the most rural areas, we design competitions that can activate participation by a whole school, encouraging teamwork and applied learning. It’s incredible the solutions that students come up with when given the chance to solve problems on their own! In this partnership we are developing nine design challenges rooted in the high school mathematics curriculum that will encourage students to build, test, and refine prototype STEM products; design business plans and pitch their products to a panel of judges.

The project will include 11 capstone events in low-income and diverse school districts across the country. Join this webinar to meet the superintendents leading the way in implementing Design & Pitch in their schools.
