The Michigan Council of Women in Technology
Foundation is excited to announce its 9th annual MCWTFoundation Website Design Competition for
high school girls in Michigan!
High school girls in Michigan are
challenged to create a website addressing this year’s theme, "Repurposing:
The ultimate in creativity and recycling." It is open ended
enough to encourage creativity, thoughtfulness, and a little research.
Student teams can be individuals or groups
of two. MCWT Foundation will award monetary prizes, ranging from $50 to $750. Girls
may enroll in one of two categories: Beginner or Advanced.
Free optional instruction will be offered
in two locations on different Saturdays.
The application deadline is fast
approaching: October 1, 2014. The deadline
to upload the design entries is November 12, 2014. Winners will be judged not
only on the technology used, but also on their creativity and innovation.
Recent winners and finalists have been from
Lake Shore HS, Utica Stevenson HS, Ferndale University HS, Salem HS, Mercy HS,
Warren Fitzgerald HS, Livonia Franklin, Canton HS, UAIS, Lakeview HS,
Farmington HS, Dearborn Center for Math, Science and Technology, Centerline HS,
International Academy, Ingham County Computer Science Academy, and many others.
MISSION: The MCWT Foundation
is dedicated to inspiring and assisting girls and women in Michigan to pursue
technology education and careers. To that end, the Foundation fosters
technology aspirations among women, of all ages, throughout Southeastern
Michigan to create a sustainable talent pool of women technology leaders
for tomorrow.
