Congratulations John, Broadcom Coding with Commitment® winner at Colorado Science and Engineering Fair!

Broadcom Coding with Commitment® recognizes students in middle school who combine STEM learning with coding to solve a community problem they care about that aligns with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations.

John's project “Reducing Human Pesticide Exposure Through Technology” helps identify pesticide exposure based on the user's location and proximity to trucks spraying pesticides from an app he programmed using coding. His project aligns with United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #3 Good Health and Well-Being.

Broadcom Coding with Commitment® provides a catalyst for students to learn basic coding and AI as essential problem-solving tools in STEM. It fosters active civic engagement by thinking globally while acting locally.

John says, "I was inspired to do this project because people in my community are concerned when the town sprays pesticides, I wanted to create a solution to help people monitor their exposure since it can have some harmful effects."

Congratulations Anders, Broadcom Coding with Commitment® winner at Middle Tennessee Science and Engineering Fair!

Broadcom Coding with Commitment® recognizes students in middle school who combine STEM learning with coding to solve a community problem they care about that aligns with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations.

Ander's project “Food Waste Detection System” uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and computer vision to automatically track, weigh, and analyze discarded food waste and sort them into three categories: compostable, recyclable, and trash. His project aligns with United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #2: Zero Hunger.

Broadcom Coding with Commitment® provides a catalyst for students to learn basic coding and AI as essential problem-solving tools in STEM. It fosters active civic engagement by thinking globally while acting locally.

Ander says, "I used Scratch Labs to automate the Food Waste Detection System."
