You're invited to HackPDX - a 12 hour hackathon with a theme of k-12 public education.
HackPDX was dreamed up and put together by two high school students. Our theme is especially dear to us; we’re both passionately involved in tech and software development, but we’re tied to a system that sometimes lags behind that innovation.
There’s no question that “STEM” is a buzzword in public education now. Technology in education is okay, but technology for education is still lacking. Many schools are still organized on outdated software, counterintuitive at best and byzantine at worst. We decided that when tech solutions get in the way of learning there’s a broken system to fix.
Thanks to our sponsors including Orchestrate, Twilio, Sendgrid, CrowdCompass, HackOregon, Cloudability, Simple, Treehouse, and New Relic. |
