Go Team Social Media!

In addition to spreading the word on Project EMAR current events, Team Social Media is busy making plans to promote the High School Design Challenge. The team is:

  • Mapping out the 8-10 weeks of the challenge
  • Scheduling topics to share with the high schools during the challenge
  • Designing a unified “look” or “brand” for Design Challenge publicity
  • Gathering Photos and bios of the team members to put on the website for the students
