During the session students will be grouped into 3s and design solutions around themes and topics such as The Great Barrier Reef, Fire and Emergency Services, Social and Environmental impact just to name a few.  Participating individuals will also receive a certificate of participation which they can use and add onto their resume. There will also be prizes up for grabs including some drones! The cost of the workshop is $15 but if you are experiencing any financial difficulties feel free to reach out to angela@hackathonsaustralia.com This is a SheFlies initiative and will be run by Hackathons Australia.  -- FAQs What is a designathon? This is a workshop where we identify a problem and design a potential solution for the problem.  What should I bring? A laptop or tablet to do some research and create a short presentation for an audience. You should also bring your positive mindset! What's the agenda? We'll be going through problem topics, form teams, and come up with use cases for drones. At 4pm we'll be running through presentations for all the groups and announce the winners by 5pm.  Who can come? Anyone who is at school from years 7-12.  What if I don't have a team or know anyone else going? The beauty of this workshop is the ability to meet new people and work with them. This is a great networking and learning opportunity. How many people from a school can come? As many as you want! However we would recommend sending 10 students per school.
