Design-a-Drone National Science Week Workshop
This program consists of a series of design-thinking workshops including prototyping a drone idea that can fly, swim or crawl.
Students will work in teams to investigate the role drones can play in farming and agriculture and how drones can protect ecosystems, manage resources and react to natural disasters.
Students will curate their design idea, develop a social-business logo and pitch their design. They will also develop a short pitch video entry into the ‘Design-a-Drone’ Competition for a chance to win their very own take-home drone!
This workshop is strictly limited to 30 innovative students with participants’ unique final creations being submitted to the highly renowned competition run by World of Drones Education.
