SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN:
Create a Twitter account with a handle connected to the project.
Add a project-related profile image.
Post an advocacy piece every day during weeks 2 and 3 (weeks of 3/1 and 3/8) of the project.
Use these hashtags: #WakeSTEMPBIGlobal #TeachSDGs #FridayInstitute #EveryDropCounts | Include these handles: @WakeSTEMECHS and @stemburgess
ALTERNATIVE ENERGY MODEL: Digital Model (Sketch Up, TinkerCAD, etc.)
Students will design a device that runs on renewable energy. The device will be tied to water and aligned with SDG #6 & #7, and the Provide Access to Clean Water Grand Challenge for Engineering.
If applicable: simulating circuits and power to and from the device.
Devices should be directly connected to their compelling question and attempt to solve that problem.
Draw a schematic/blue print of your device and be able to explain how the device will work using renewable energy.
Research and describe current technologies that address your compelling question
