Verizon app challenge
By Claire
Who doesn’t want a Galaxy Note 10.1 and money? Well, Hello
technology geeks! I am about to introduce you to the competition that will
get you bubbling with excitement. This year, the Verizon Foundation and
TSA have yet again opened their Innovative App Challenge and basically,
the sky is the limit. Design an app and submit it by December 3! It’s as easy
as that. And as a reward for you ingenuity and hard work you have the
chance of winning great prizes! For example, each Best in Region school
will receive a $5,000 cash grant plus virtual training on coding and support
from the MIT Media Lab’s app development experts to help it build its app
concept! How cool is that?! And to top it all off, the national winners get to
present their app at Washington DC at the National TSA Conference … ON
THEIR NEW TABLETS! Tell me that’s not cool. And by the way girls, last year
60% of the winners were females...
Don’t know how to code? No worries. You only need to design it, so
start thinking! And visit http://appchallenge.tsaweb.org/rules for more
