In this summer, CASPA is going to partner with Broadcom Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of semiconductors, along with its education community the Broadcom Foundation, in hosting the 2022 Science and Engineering Fair(SEF), ”PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT AROUND US”, for the youths in Silicon Valley. What’s more, ARM, honored as the crown jewel of the global computer chip industry, will sponsor training and projects based on the Micro:bit, and will host a competitive event for the teenager bracket.
As a flag event of CASPA, SEF targets K-12 students, allows our community and children to conduct experiments of their own interests and gain hands-on learning experiences including reading, writing, critical thinking, problem-solving, data analysis, and public speaking. This promotes community building and at the same time establishes a stronger connection between STEM education and the practical problem solving of the industry.
Compared to the previous hardware used by the CASPA SEF, the Raspberry Pi, this year the Micro:bit serves a different niche in STEM education. Whereas the Raspberry Pi is a standalone computing unit, supporting programming out of the box, the Micro:bit would need a connection to a computer to be programmed, and has a systematic course developed for it by ARM.
CASPA 2022 Science and Engineering Fair kick-off event is on Saturday 06/18 12:30PM-4:00PM. More detail and registration can be found here: https://caspa.com/caspa-2022-science-and-engineering-fair-registration
