Genesee
Community College Tech Wars 2009 is a
competition for high school and middle school
technology students in the GLOW region. Because
this is the first of what we hope will be an
annual event, only GLOW Region County schools
(Genesee, Livingston, Orleans and Wyoming) are
invited to participate. If you're not a GLOW
region school check back with us next year when
we expect to open up the competition to schools
outside our area.
Our
goal in hosting this event is to allow students
to take what they learn in the Technology
classrooms and compete in a hands-on educational
yet fun program. (specific events are listed on
the contest rules page.) Hopefully the interest
in this competition will help to boost
enrollments of technology classes because what
is learned there can be transferred to the world
of home and work almost on a daily basis.
Ultimately the imagination of some students may
go beyond the classroom where they develop such
a deep interest in Technology that they make a
career of it. Some day those students may come
back as a teacher or mentor of the technology
students of the future. |
